"Dorato" 36''x48'' Canvas Abstact
"Dorato"
I am a little behind in posting, but here is a large piece I finished a few days ago. Things are getting pretty busy, both in art opportunities and other life matters. I have a new gallery to paint for as well as some summer and fall fetsivals, so paint is flying every chance I get!
With this painting and some other recent ones, I have gone with a more atmospheric approach while keeping the rough palette knife elements which have become my trademark. I like the warmth of the piece with the dabs of turquoise. The name is Italian for "golden".
Tomorrow....a new 12''x12''.

"Surreal View" 8''x8'' Acrylic Palette Knife Painting on RayMar Panel
It's always fun to switch from larger canvas work and just paint these little panels. I paint them spontaneously without too much thought and just see where they will go. They are great studies for the big paintings and I really enjoy doing them.
