Burst of Spring

18 x 24

Oil and acrylic

 

I wish I had taken photos of this painting through its many phases.  It started as a purely abstract painting based on colors I liked using acrylics.  On this size canvas I decided it wasn't a stand alone painting so I tried doing another abstract with oils.  Maybe I'm just used to doing my abstracts on larger canvases, usually 36 x 36.  I liked the colors so I kept going and did what is one of my favorites things and, that is paint flowers and use a lot of heavy paint.  It was fun to do.
