Whereas abstract expressionism is typically a free form exercise for me, this began with a clear idea and rough sketch. I chose six colors and painted mostly with a single brush going from color to color so that the resulting palette grew exponentially. While I had a vision, I let the painting evolve naturally, adding color and detail in the moment resulting in the final piece which has an organic, earth and nature vibe that surpassed my own expectations.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe piece is 16\"x40\" (40x102cm), 1.5\" (4cm) deep, acrylic on canvas, sides painted.

Think of layers, both in the layered colors you can see, and the many layers underneath that contribute to a complex mixture of textures. On some paintings, I have a concept that I see through to completion and then set it aside and walk past it daily, studying it, walk away and keep coming back. I know it's not done, but don't yet know if it requires a little or a complete paint over. Such was the journey on this. What you see is the third iteration; the first two were nice, but not right. So, they were painted over and new inspiration and concept emerged until I arrived at this.
