I want to capture the element of surprise.
I took to blending bright colours and gold to contrast texture, field size, and shape.
As always, the execution of this piece is something that I will need to properly position and tweak to my liking.
Did you know, that I never sign a piece until I feel that it is 100% complete? I suppose that would be the singular perfectionist trait that I hold.
(And yes, that is the only one)

Happy June!
I keep creating, giving away, and dreaming up new art pieces for my collection.
As usual, once I commit to something it truly becomes a sort of obsession for me. I have never been the type to become invested in something, to only see it fall by the wayside soon after. If I can’t see myself sticking with a hobby, I prefer to not indulge. (If that makes much sense).
This is my latest acrylic piece. I call it “Acrylic Fire”.
I will keep experimenting with this medium as I develop my style; but I must admit that even if I do not sell another piece, my work is important to me and I hope I never stop.

My large acrylic painting has been completed at last!
The dimensions are 24 x 60 inches. I chose this size because I wanted something wide enough to fit the large open space behind my living room sofa.
I experimented with green and yellow- with an orange and gold explosion in the center.
Here is a shot of where it hangs in my living room.

I have always been in awe of the sun. (Not unlike most other creatures on this earth of course.) One of my favourite comics features a short story about a personified celestial being (the sun) falling in love with a woman from the planet he orbited. You can read more about it here.
I created this acrylic on canvas piece in two parts (diptych). I wanted it to be a three part (triptych), but alas, when creativity strikes you must not wait too long to capture it.
In order to have a 3rd canvas ready at the time of production I would have needed to wait another day to have the frame dry enough to stretch the canvas and prep it with gesso. I was able to spend more time blending the colours with two pieces instead of three. I used a pearlescent powder with to give a shimmering effect for the cloud area around the bright orange sun. The idea here is that the sun is peeking over a deep blue ocean to move across the sky from East to West.
