Color study

This is a color study for a small painting I am doing for the 13 squared group (more on that later). I did a lot of changes; scraping away color and re-painting. Its a lot easier on paper than on canvas to change colors although after a while you will make mud. Ever make mud? How do you fix it?

More new work: Exploring

'Exploring' is my latest canvas: 36" h x 24" w. It is an exploration of deep reds and complimentary colors, my favorite color theme. I'm still exploring the stream theme. This one disappears into the field in the distance. I like thinking about where it is going; like my art. I've spent the last few days working on the kitchen and its time to get back to the studio! Stay 'tooned.
