I have quite a few new paintings and sketches to post. Today I’m posting some more small painting-sketches. These could be considered studies for future larger works, but they are also (usually) little paintings or drawings in and of themselves.
The painting above is a further study into the basic organic forms I have been working with.
In the little painting above, I was exploring the compression of space through the use of closely related color values.
OK, this last little sketch should perhaps be called “What the Heck Happened Here?” I really couldn’t tell you; kind of went out on a limb; maybe fell off. Still, I kind of like it, and as usual, it suggests a direction to further explore.
It also looks good, but different, upside down from the way I painted it (ah, the beauty of square paintings!):
