Finished my first small abstract piece since my Deanne Fitzpatrick class Wild With Style. I find abstract challenging at times. Some people find it easy. I love playing with colour and composition, but sometimes I hook myself into a corner and cannot get out! Today I did just that. Originally the piece looked like this:
I loved the light green lines, but the one on the side was just drawing too much attention. By shortening it I changed the entire focal point of the piece to the ‘noose’ in the top green line.
While I am not 100% happy with this little piece (there is always room for improvement), I am sufficiently pleased with it to work on my next piece. I am undecided as to whether to call it Canola, and work it all in yellows, or Fields, and mix in purply-blue for the flax and yellow for the canola… Hmm…think I’ll sleep on it tonight.
