Scatter


16 x 12 acrylic on canvas
Hope this doesn't create motion sickness The scan muted the colors in such a way that perhaps the motion of the painting is diffused. I had fun using dry brush strokes, spatter paint and a penny to put this together. The yellow lines, which were created by rolling the edge of a penny over the surface, are actually much brighter. It's those vibrant lines that provide the movement. Other than that I don't find any other significant point of this one. I do like the colors of the real painting better than I do of the scanned image.

Sylvia!

I've got a new blog: runswithleopards.blogspot.com. I'm going to add you to my list of blogs so I can better keep up with your paintings. I love this one--a great reflection on the day I happened to be born.
