Four new paintings

Title: Playing with Pollock 1



Acrylic on canvas
30" x 10"
I have always liked the idea of throwing paint on a canvas and Jackson Pollock is one of my favorite painters. I gave it a try and this is what happened.

Title: Circles in the Wind



Acrylic on canvas
24" x 24"
I broke a brush while I was putting a background color on this painting and decided to spread the bristles around the canvas. Then I painted the circles which look as though they are being carried in the wind because of the bristles.

The texture in this piece makes the strips of color look like corn cobs are exploding like fireworks. Hence, Cob Works.

Recent Oil Work

Red Flowers
Oil on Canvas
I went to an art show in California and a woman had a great section of a painting with these red flowers that really popped. They were my favorite part of the painting and I could have been satisfied with just that portion. I decided to paint my own instead. The detail is pretty difficult to see in this photo, my apologies.
