I've been doing a monthly art challenge with a wonderful group of local artists, coordinated by Selena Stevens Art and Two Sisters Scrapbooking and Papercraft.
This month was "Monochrone".
I had so many ideas and was finding it hard to actually start a piece. Over the past 2 years I've painted a number of black and white paintings, from landscape to still life, but I wanted to step outside the comfort zone with this challenge.
I started the piece yesterday, finally with a clear idea of what I wanted to paint. Then this morning it changed….. I started to listen to what the canvas and paints wanted to become..... I know it sounds a bit funny, but I just started to follow how the colours where blending and the patterns from different strokes and the next thing..... well here it is.
Abstract art is a challenge for me, but I'm enjoying the processes involved.
