Something out my window Version 2

Every one in awhile I get an urge to paint out of the comfort zone and more likely than not paintings such as the one above appear.  I actually really enjoy painting these as they allow me to use what ever technical abilities I have garnered over the years combined with a rampant imagination and playfulness.  The paintings give me the same wonder I feel when gazing at summer clouds, always changing and open to interpretation.  This piece is painted on a 12 inch square piece of masonite prepped with acrylic modelling paste and shellac.

Hi Darrell, Your most recent painting The Painter made me revisit this one. I really like this abstract style of yours!

Thanks Tony. Yes, there is much to explore in this area, the head seems to have to be in a special place.
