Inspired Painting Series

Several years ago, I had a dream of geometric shapes as light source. I did a series of three paintings with this theme and idea of geometric shape as light source. It was a vivid dream when I was dreaming, but, as with most dreams, it faded when I wanted to recall the paintings.

Triangle

The first of three paintings in that series was the triangle since I have a love affair with the triangle. This was fun to paint and required many layers of paint and acrylic medium. The technique used is one of put on and then take off, sanding between layers.

It must really be seen in person to enjoy the colors and texture. I would love to sell this painting to the right person.

Circle

The 2nd in the series was the circle. This one was much more challenging for some reason. I used only acrylic paint on this one.

Square

The final painting in the series was the square. It was more fun than the circle. And it took a different turn than the triangle and circle. I used much gel medium along with acrylic paints.
