"Is that a blue wave?"


At a certain point, I decided to take all of the broken, interesting pieces of wood from my pile of scraps and use them for paintings. At first, it was more just playing around - color studies, I guess you could call them; but I ultimately ended up liking them as paintings.

With this one, I'm really just thinking about a painting I did in my sophomore year and just running with that motif. All the while, however, I have no real end in mind. I'm just playing with how my way of working reacts with the wood and the shape of the surface.

I love this piece, but this (and the next post's piece) make hanging my work extremely tough to arrange. Triangles are the pieces that make or break the setup.


Take care,

Andrew
