A Work in Progress

At a recent workshop, I learned about mixed media painting. Here is the work in progress from that workshop. On it I used watercolour, liquid acrylic, saran wrap, waxed paper, watercolour inks and cheesecloth. Sounds like kitchen sink stew. The beauty of abstract is that the viewer interprets what is there, not the artist. That could be why many artists prefer title their works "untitled". This allows the viewer to impose an interpretation of their own. Art reflects life in many ways. Our memories often tend to focus on the good things that have happened to us much like the viewfinder the artist uses. If there is a portion of the painting that doesn't quite work, I amend it by removing that part of the painting. Who knows how this one will end up. You are seeing it exactly as I brought it home from the workshop. Stay tuned for the finished product.
