Experimenting with smaller works, all A5, acrylics

...and wife taking drunk husband home from the party

sorry to jump in on your thread...

I have learned, the hard way, to keep some pictures because ... I like them, when others haven't.
Previously, I've recycled some because my wife and son kinda went ...'errr...really?'
Totally regret painting over them, now.

So...if I like it, I now keep it.

Here are two I regret painting over...

I can understand that ... I laughed

Yeah, it's too bad we allow others to dictate what we feel about our own work sometimes. Maybe we should use it as a barometer (when someone else says "eh" it means it's GOOD!)

I can do that. Love the idea

How do I while away 2 hours on a very hot day, without going outside? A few more than a few mini abstract acrylics. Very much in the AbEx mould. No editing. No preplanning, except choice of colours, and the tools to be used. Max time, 5 minutes per piece.View attachment 38229View attachment 38230View attachment 38231View attachment 38232

The last image has sold. Posted images elsewhere, and someone wants it. No returns, her idea.

That's fantastic, Jennie - congrats!!

 

[Artyczar]

Yay! Congratulations!

That's fantastic, Jennie - congrats!!

I know Terrie and Ayin Es. She knows my work but has not purchased before. Feels good.

Thanks Ayin, I was conflicted about sharing them. No one else I've shared them with had positive comments.

My mother in law were watching a YouTube video of the Miami art show. Virtually every piece shown was followed by my MIL saying "What's that?!!" "What's that supposed to be?!" LOL. These were high end artworks. Most people don't get abstract.

Yeah! Just occasionally I wish I didn't enjoy creating abstract works best!
