Flight

Acrylic 9x6 on Montval Paper

My initial goal was to present a workable and engaging composition of small, light colored "boxes" against a nondescript background.  I started with gray and blue gray, but found it too lifeless.  This deeper blue back gound works to bring the focus forward to the yellow rectangle in the upper left.  The rest of the elements are placed and colored to draw the eye to that point and then to move it throughout the painting.
