Blueberry Abstraction 8 & 9



  "Blueberry Abstraction 9" (12 x 12 inches)


 "Blueberry Abstraction 8" (16 x 16 inches)

This is two paintings that was done when I felt like really push the (my) limits. The first one I just went for it, experimented with colors and shapes and had a lot of fun doing it. I liked the result, but I wondered how it would look like if I took more control of it and kept it cleaner, so I painted the 2nd one. I like them both, but for different reasons.

Flower Abstraction 22


This is a rather bold painting considering it's size and the simplicity in it's composition. I made it a while back and it was at that time I also started to work with other colors than black in my contour lines.

Pine Cone Abstraction 4


This is one of the smaller pine cone paintings I did a while back. I am painting again, but my attention is divided, will share that when I know more.

Abstracture 16


I did this a while back and I decided to go with the "Abstracture" series name rather than the "berry abstraction" one since it is more abstract and conceptional. A lot of experimentation going on and I had a lot of fun painting it.

Flower Abstraction 43


This is another painting I did a while back. It is the last and smallest of three paintings based on Dogwood flowers. I love the monochromatic  color palette.

Flower Abstraction 45


I did earlier a very colorful painting with orange/red flowers, I really pushed the colors. I liked it a lot and decided to do a smaller painting with a new composition. I have started to fiddle with paint again, just as a way to get started again.

Flower Abstraction 26


I am still not painting, but thought I share this one. I posted a similar composition earlier, the first of two I did. I did this one right after the other one, which I liked, but I wanted to try another one without the 3rd flower.

Berry abstraction 1


This is the painting that inspired my latest posts of blueberries (,cherries and raspberries). It is large and very in your face considering that some of the berries as large as a head, at least a child's head.
It is too hot for me to paint right now and don't have much spare time to sit down, but it's only summer once a year, right?
