Non-objective paintings

Depths of Passion (12x12)



Pink Elephant Dreams



When I switched to oils for portraits, I never thought I'd touch acrylics again for anything. I almost packed them all up and gave them away, but held off long enough to think about their usefulness. But it never occurred to me that I'd be painting non-objective paintings with them and enjoying the way they handle. I did these two paintings this weekend (and little else except eating and brushing my teeth.) 8 X 10


Non-objective experiments

Inner Musings


This is a little study, 6 X 6. I did it from a photo taken immediately before the reference photo for First Bubbles of Mirth, which is awaiting some revisions.
