Abstract No. 26 Framing Imagination

Abstract number 26. I have to say it was pretty fun that today while I was working on this abstract I got to a point where I just didn't like the way it was going and then I had the idea of adding the square box. Originally I was thinking of putting the white down so that I could easily put another solid color on top. But after painting the white I LOVED how it looks. I also love that you can see what lies beneath. Like a snapshot of my imagination. I was scared at first to put the box on top of it because it might have ruined what I'd already spent a good bit of time on. But it's just one more painting in all the paintings I plan to do .. and it was clearly a "what if" that I had to experience. It's good. It was the right decision.
The sadness has abated and I am grateful. And I am glad to be painting more regularly. If you are interested in this painting please contact me at iwilldream4ever@aol.com. Thank you for coming over and having a look .. have a wonderful rest of the day .. oh and change the clocks .. we're springing forward tonight. : ) ciao.
