tormenta hermosa - 2010



Took a while, but I finally completed this piece a few weeks ago. Seeing the painting live is so much more vivid as some of the interesting colour interactions are lost with the photo. None-the-less, here it is. A continuation of the drip, blend and splatter process, I hoped with "tormenta" to really embrace the long drips by creating predominantly vertical canvases. Breaking it into a tryptic, I felt, also emphasized the vertical and created more visual interest in the piece.

tormenta hermosa is acrylic on canvas, Tryptic, 11.75 x 48in (x3)
