How I created this painting

Pedro is painted onto a 38mm gallery grade block canvas and measures 182cm x 61cm (72" x 24"). He was created using violet, sand, yellow, white, black and burnt sienna acrylic paints.

Why I created it

Well it's something a bit different for me. Besides, I wanted to paint something swirly.

What's going on in this painting?

Despite my normal love of everything geometric and ordered I still enjoy working with a degree of randomness. I have tried to offset the vibrancy and dominance of the purples and yellows by calming the shapes with blends of white. These three colours are brought together by the burnt sienna which adds an earthy, stable content to the painting. The shapes I have created are simply born out of the freedom of moving my brush - I didn't have any real agenda on where the shapes should be placed or what they should look like, However, I am always mindful about getting balance in all of my paintings and with Pedro this was extremely important. I don't like unbalanced or weighty pictures that are difficult to look at. I want interesting shapes and colours that don't leave me breathless or tired after looking at them. I think I got that right with this painting.
