Colours and shapes
So what we’ve ended up with here is a very light and uplifting painting full of space and freedom. The backbone is that beautiful black curve that moves up the left hand side. It’s the anchor point from which everything else attaches to.
Woven around this is blue and red (primarily) with accents of bright orange, pink, silver turquoise and purple. It is perhaps the blue and orange paint applications I find the most compelling but that’s an entirely personal thing.
There rare so many different techniques in this painting – things like dragging, sponging, drops, flicks and splats. It has helped to shape the textures in the composition – some of which I have tried to show in the photos. Of particular note is the silver; I added some chemicals to form a cell structure to parts of it – looks amazing!
Hanging and locating
If you need light this is an absolute winner. If you have a large feature wall then this ticks the box. Consider it a warm and friendly leap into individuality that doesn’t take a college degree to work out and won’t smack you in the face each time you walk past it.
It’s very well behaved, full of light and space and if you can’t bask in it’s sunny disposition then it’s not for you. That’s okay; it’s the way of things.
If, however, you feel the ocean lapping at your feet or the touch of a light breeze upon your face (or you just love the shapes and colours) then as long as you’ve got somewhere to hang it you need to give me a call.
Lighting and natural light are almost a secondary consideration here – it’s so airy and carefree that you really don’t need to think twice about choosing the right space. It’s that easy to live with! And if you’re still undecided then let me help you by suggesting ten reasons why you should get your next abstract art work from me. End of sermon.
