Large Blue and White Abstract Painting - Convergence in Blue and White


Convergence in Blue and White
30x30, acrylic on canvas

This painting has a whole lotta texture!  

I wanted to work in blue and white with this abstract and imagined adding in other colours along the way.  The background is actually a beautiful green/gold, seen in bits and pieces between circles and at edges.  But once I got started, I couldn't see any other colour coming into the mix.  

With this amount of movement and texture, two colours is all it seemed to need.

In a 30x30 inch size, it makes quite an impact.

Abstract Painting - Convergence


Convergence
24x24 inches, acrylic on canvas

Before I started painting, I spent many years getting flashes of colour and images of paintings in my mind, mostly of the colour red and of very thick paint.  I have always been attracted to colour, but in the years leading up to the time when I first put paint to canvas, my feelings toward colour became very intense.  And it was because of these intense feelings that I developed a desire to paint.

So I find it quite interesting to have finally painted something in red and with quite thick paint, as my colour palette usually hovers around the more landscape colours of green and blue, sometimes golden yellow.  And this painting is definately not a landscape, even in the most abstract sense, which was my original intension when this journey began.
