Here's a piece I finished yesterday (acrylic on canvas, 30 by 30 inches):
I also made this painting at the same time. I'm not as happy with it, and yet it has something going on that intrigues me ...
When I make a painting, I draw lines on the canvas with paint extruded through plastic bottles, then lay down a sheet of paper and roll over it with a brayer, so that the lines of wet paint spread out. This leaves me with, not only my canvas, but also a white sheet of paper covered with white lines, the perfect surface on which to play with color! I had collected a pile of these pages, so last night I decided to try painting on them, and this is what resulted. Each one is acrylic on paper, 30" H x 22" W.
2011 is off to a rockin' start!

Love them all!!!!! Aren't experiments the great thing?
The colors are amazing, you done good, ha!
Thank you, Patty, I'm excited by the colors too. It was cool to work on these papers, because they were essentially "throw-away" items and I felt no pressure to "succeed" with them. Glad you like 'em ...
