Joy study

Joy study

Although this painting started out as an abstract concept based on color and shape rather than based on meaning, I feel that it still fits with the title 'Joy', as well as with this passage from Philippians 1 :3 - 4  "I thank my God in all my remembrance of you. In every prayer of mine I always make my entreaty and petition for you all with joy (delight)." These colors work together making such interesting and pleasant combinations and mixes- like friends who bring each other joy. 

I painted two companion paintings today, and the second one will come up in my next post. I am really enjoying being a part of the painting challenge, and can really notice that I have improved in my painting skills since the first challenge I did in June of 2013.
