12" x 12" acrylic on canvas
This is a small study that I did for a larger piece. I made some bold color choices and I like it. It feels like I turned a corner and finally found a path that suits me. This is the direction that I want to go with my work....it is the type of art that I can live with. The palette was heavily influenced by William Theophilos Brown who I recently discovered through the book Bay Area Figurative art. here is one of his pieces (though not the piece that influenced the palette above.)
it all harmonizes well.
ReplyDeleteI enjoy looking at it more than the Brown sample below.
your colors are bold, but the Brown art is a bit too demanding chromatically.

It's great! I'm so happy to hear you've turned a corner, still looking for it myself:-) - gives me hope lol!...Love it! It's very alive and tender at the same time.
ReplyDeleteWhat a beautiful moment you've captured. I love the Bay Area painters influence! Great color.
