Structures 1

Structures 1 Acrylic

Acrylic on Paper, 4x4

My goal in this small "daily" painting was to experiment with Lucas Pasto acrylic to create texture.  On top of the texture, I added standard acrylic for color.  As the painting developed, colors seemed to fold one into another giving the painting "structure."  I added the lines to separate and add distinction to the color areas.  The idea was to draw the eye to the upper right where it could rest in the dark red and then to the left to circle the painting.
