Large Textured Abstract Painting - Midnight Rain


Midnight Rain
30x30 inches, acrylic on canvas

This is a large textured abstract painting done in a style that has become somewhat of a signature style for me with regard to abstracts.  

What I love about it is, when picking up several different colours of paint with the painting knife, you can get these chunky strokes with a multitude of colours running through it, because you not only get the colours you picked up on your knife, but any subtle variation of those colours combining on the canvas.

It's wonderful for layering and for any piece where I want texture on top of texture.  I recently did a piece where this technique was used to portray rain on a car windshield.  So I thought perhaps a subtle variation in blues would give the effect of rain at night.
