It is always exciting to explore a different facet of design and color. Changing or pushing local color is a place to start as is apparent in this piece.
Using mixed media helps lead me to the discovery of images. Torn and painted papers lend themselves to ideas. The uses of texture, contrasting colors and values, and above all the study of shapes, large and small, are especially important for less representational images.
With the tight economy, and the press of other artistic venues, I enjoy including small offerings in this 'gallery'. |
