June Abstracts 1 – 16

Part of the month of June I am working on abstract pieces. I have decided to start with small works on paper. Inspired by Gary Reef’s abstract challenge over on his Ning group.

The first set consists of 20 pieces which I hope to bind into an art book. I found an interesting YouTube video that I am using to create the book itself.

To see the full collection of abstracts 1 – 16 I have uploaded them to my Facebook album here. This summer will be a summer of change in my life. Big change. It feels really good to go back to the colors and shapes that I am the most comfortable with. These little works of art (they are all 6″ x 6″) have brought me a lot of joy and even a bit of security. Working with things you love and that are well known by your muse can be cathartic for artists.
