Excellent installment--I admire your use of line shape to alter composition. The green is a great touch!

Thank you! Funny you mention the green. It's not one of the colors usually in my color palette. Since this is part of a collaboration, I used the green from my "neighbors" palette. Terra Verte I think is the name of it.
Pics of the installment soon to come!

Beautiful work! I love the delicate lines fused with the colour and texture of marks. This piece is very enigmatic and pulls you in

What a stunning depiction using your usual perfect sense of symbolism! Also, the title is so spot on!

Thank you! The title was a little tough at first. I was going back and forth between two other titles I came up with and then this popped in my head.

SethFitts In reply to oldnutmeg [2009-08-05 12:26:11 +0000 UTC]

Thank you! The acrylic was thinned with medium and water. Then it was brushed on in layers and glazes.
