April 14, 2022 – Birth of an Atom, New Acrylic Diptych ( almost finished! )

Using my last pair ( I think I have one black gesso panel left ) I had on / off fun between chores working up Birth of an Atom.

Paint is slashed here and there across between the 2, sometimes seamlessly, sometimes in a staggered fashion, and sometimes not at all, lol!

The detail shot with a vertical red arrow below, shows where I’ll cut to fully separate the two canvas panels —

The close up shows the colors and ( somewhat ) the texture a lot clearer.

The detail shot also shows me something suspected might be true when I chose a slightly smaller than usual palette knife to layer the paint across the 2 panels – that I kinda prefer the swatches of paint to cover a larger percentage of the canvas area per swipe. Next time, next time – I need to remember that 😊

Meanwhile, next up, rather than heading to the storage for more non-gallery wrapped canvases, I plan to pick up working on 2 24×36 figure paintings I’d left off to play with the stretched canvases ☺️

Here’s some pics and links to the two figure works “still” in progress –

Stay well everyone! Be creative! It’s you’re natural bent since birth! 🙏 ❤️

  I wasn’t sure when to stop but my own waves of self, conscious of the need to rest joined the earth before me, an image shaped by pigments from itself.

  “My plan, my hope, is to keep this, my original layin, produce a new 2nd similar layin but add a content color layin; keep it; then repeat the steps with the two formative layers and see what finished product I might produce – 3 works total”
