Confusion!

This painting in acrylic was done on textured gessoed canvas, designed and built over, using  Bas Relief technique.  The Angel Fish came about, scanning the maze-like world around it with that patch on its tail, trying to fool the predators to mistake that fin for the eyes, protecting its visual and decision making organs.  Aren't they clever?
















Story of My Life

Bought a couple of 24x36 black gessoed canvases the other day that looked exciting.  Did not have any immediate plan what to paint on them so I decided to go by my usual way of approaching a new canvas and squeezed out some paint on my palette to go with the black canvas.  The result:














These two paintings came about.  so I called one "The story of My Life", of course and the other one, "Synchronized Twirls".
