Face Abstraction 1

 Not For Sale

This is the first attempt that gave me some clues about where I wanted to go. The proportions are a little out there, but it gave me something to think about.

Old faces.....

I haven't done many attempts adapt painting faces to my new looser style. I did one two years ago, but then my style wasn't as loose as now. I have started the journey to finding out how I want to express myself. I know I don't want to do it like I did it before. Here is a few examples of old paintings...

Exploration 1


This is my first non-figurative abstract painting I have ever done. I wanted to keep my style, and play with things that are my strengths. I had a lot of fun with it.

Apples and Pears 5


I went back to small with this one and I tried to keep it clean and simple. I wanted every brush stroke to count.

Abstructure 2


This is the 2nd painting in a new series of paintings that I have been working on. My intention lately have been to go more abstract, have even tried non-figurative abstract for the first time in my life. This series is based on nature (shapes and colors) and is more or less abstract.

Flowerl Abstraction 8

SOLD

I did this one before the white ones and I really liked the result. Using black lines the way I do means that sometimes I can be bold with them and some times I have to hold them back.

SOLD

SOLD

I have explored these small single flower paintings, well one of these got a little more than one. It has resulted in larger ones, but more about them later.

Rowan Berries 14


After painting medium size paintings of Rowan berries, in different sizes, I decided to go up a notch. This is the first of two larger paintings of the subject.

Pear Abstraction 1

 Buy two 6" x 6" paintings and only pay shipping and handling for one.

Right now I am working on going as abstract as I can. Sometimes I even go non figurative, something very new for me. This one was done a while back when I went as small as possible, something I don't do at the moment.

Blueberry Abstraction 2


This is the 2nd painting I did with this pink and purple fabric with blueberries. I tried to keep it graphic, fun and abstract. It is interesting how much inspiration a fabric can give.

Flower Abstraction 4

Buy two 6" x 6" paintings and only pay shipping and handling for one.

I know some people that doesn't like  the strange shape of a Coneflower, but I like the extreme shapes and colors. OK, this is a white one, but there is other colors too.

Rowan Berries 11

SOLD

This is one of my personal favorites. After painting squares I decided to go up in size and explore more. What I like with this series is that it is part nature/landscape and part fruit/berries. I have learned a lot and I hope to take some of it with me when I get back to my tree abstraction paintings.

Blueberry Abstraction 6

 Buy two 6" x 6" paintings and only pay shipping and handling for one.

I did this composition twice. This one, the 2nd one, I did after I had done the single blueberry with the extreme brush strokes and contrasts. I kept the same principle with this one.

Rowan Berries 4

SOLD

This is one of the first paintings of this series and is a variation of the "Rowan Berries 4". I wanted to see how it would look if I zoomed in and concentrated the composition.
