Acrylic on wood panel with mixed media, 24” x 24” x 1.5”
This piece has great story. It started as a cobalt blue and green gold piece that had some interest to it but I could not figure out how to complete it after the underpainting and mark making were done. It sat for a couple weeks, I put it on the wall, looked at it and decided I could not see what it wanted to become. So I started over, I put some new colors and new marks on top of the blue and green and did some line work (circles) and found that the blue and green peaking out from underneath looked kinda cool but the gray and orange and dark blue on the top really stole the show. I posted this on FB and a painting friend loved it and called it “planets in motion”! I liked that concept and it does in fact remind me of a planetary scene. Its mystical and has such nice movement.
