One of my friends suggested the name “Intersections” for this loud and colorful piece. It is 36″ X 48″ of lively and happy art. I started this a year ago, and never felt it was finished. Last week I spent most of a day or two making changes and adding details. I am pleased now with the result. Sometimes I think you just have to be in the right frame of mind to finish an abstract painting.

Landscapes, figures , still lifes and etcetera are not easy, but you are looking at what you are attempting to transfer to canvas and make it your statement. In an abstract you and your mind are on your own. I often listen to music or to a book on audio while I paint, so I put myself out of my every day life. It is so important to learn to take time to yourself.
