Abstract Practice

"Sometimes you need a little rain"
Originally, the painting was suppose to be this way- horizontal. That way the orange represents rain, across the contrasting blue. I wanted to make it represent a falling, but a balanced and controlled falling. It reminded me of rain, and sort of that yin and yang theory of one not being able to exsist without the other...

However, my family liked it this way- so i thought I'd show it vertical as well.

I wish it wasn't so controlled...i would like it a little freer- but I didn't know if there was anything else i could do to it...maybe ill go back to it in awhile..



Art Therapy

A little painting for feeling...
I did this when i was in the zone..all my emotions were raging and I was pretty pissed off.
I have been trying to loosen up and just let me work with the paints by feeling- and
this happened!
"Set Fire to the Forest"
I originally was going to make it a forest scene- realistic. Then i just kept going with the energy and my mood and it became this.
I still think it looks like an abstract forest. But more passionate, and burning...
It looks great hanging up on my yellow bedroom walls!
