New Every Morning #5

NEM #5

Actually painted a couple of days ago, this painting surprised me with the way the colors work together. I liked it before I expected to be finished with it! The cruciform composition I have been working with seems to encourage creativity in me, as does working with such small sizes. I love practicing with the transparent "modern color theory" paint, and combining it with the iridescents, as I did here.

I have been (between errands, Open House prep, and still being a bit under the weather) working on finishing an Easter painting that I hope to release tomorrow. For Easter in 2016, I released a series of three paintings that I still consider to be some of my most meaningful work to date. I wanted to work on a painting that would go with that series - hoping that I can paint the Easter morning painting to be even more expressive than the first one was. 

I invite you to check out these three paintings and blog posts.
