A couple weeks ago I talked about having been recently influenced by the work of Piet Mondrian. And I mentioned that I thought it was possible that the elements that had a little similarity to his work might become veiled as I finished my painting. That, I believe, was an understatement. I think obliterated would better describe what occurred!
With some effort you can still see the highly graphic underpainting that I started with. But, as is often the case when I have a brush in hand and no one to stop me, I took this piece in an entirely different direction. Or maybe this piece took me in an entirely different direction. Regardless, it doesn’t look much like a Mondrian anymore, does it?
I like it!
