“100 Days of Hell”. Acrylic on canvas. #abstractart #contemporaryart #originalart #paintings

Abstract painting, created with a warm color palette. Color choices, brush marks and textures imply a feeling of summer heat.

A peek into a work in progress. Since nature is a constant source of inspiration, I feel drawn toward hot colors now. I’ll post a better image later. #originalart #abstractart #paintings #workinprogress

Abstract painting with a grayish blue background. Dripping splotches of dark and light pinks. Small marks of green. Inspired by Spring flowers and rain.

Up until yesterday, I’ve used a light grey wall to serve as a backdrop for my art photos. I decided to paint it a crisp, clean white. I love the results. The painting really pops off the wall. #art #abstractart #originalart #paintings
