Yesterday marked the beginning of a new year for me. This particular painting marks the growth of time and what lies ahead.

I had high hopes for this painting and it just didn't go the way as planned. Needless to say, it doesn't exist any longer and that's okay. I am getting back into painting and when things don't work out, well. Let's just say I am learning how to let go and move on...

I've always been a sucker for texture. It's fun to find ways to create a three dimensional look on a flat surface. First abstract of the year!

I was inspired by a photograph taken by @felecool on Instagram. The painting doesn't look anything like the photo, but then again, its not supposed to either. It's a 16 x 20 mixed media (watercolor and acrylic) on canvas board.
