This End Up??

Filed under: Painting — miasmagladness @ 6:13 am

Here’s a piece that began with smearing leftover paint onto a canvas-covered board. It started out as a landscape but then I got interested just in how the paint itself looked So I followed it where it took me. What I wound up with seems like a still life with a bottle but then I started turning the painting around and I’m not sure which orientation is best. Makes it hard to come up with a title.

  1. They all look great. I kind of like the first one best because it reminds me of a dog or some other animal. Maybe the other directions have forms, too? I LOVE all of the green and yellow and white (and other) mixed paint on the side.
