24: A triptych

This is a quick shot of a triptych. Each part has its own title. The top long piece is called begin and end, the darker blue piece on the left is night and the last image on the right is day!
I photographed the three pieces on a piece of corregated cardboard placed on the floor while standing directly above it. If I ever choose to exhibit my experimental pieces, I will document them more carefully and when ready to hang...but this is about FUN. I will have to add a detail shot or two to show the way the color works together and the texture. Next up will be a couple three dimensional objects.

Experimental work

I am a traditional artist for the most part, but I love paint. Just playing with color is exciting. So, I use my "leftover" mixed colors from other paintings to make small works just about color, pattern and texture.
Most galleries don't like it when artists have more than one body of work, but this part of me has to have an outlet, so I started this blog. Hope you enjoy both types of work. I love Albers and Frankenthaller as well as Fechin, Leffel and Monet. The medium is the message with these pieces.
