Abstract #1 |
Gouache and Ink, 4x4 on paper
This is the first painting I had done as a purely abstract painting. It was inspired by the work of Japanese artist, Hiroshi Matsumoto - check his Facebook page.
I was not really pleased with the result, but I liked it enough to continue. After doing 16 other paintings in the series of 20, I took another look at this original piece. The basic color was good, but it lacked definition and separation, so I added ink lines which made a huge difference!
I had initially set my goal to use primary colors in gouache, and I continued with that standard through the rest of the paintings.
