Yeah, it's small but I really enjoyed painting it, It was tough to photograph it accurately so the original looks far better with a subtle depth and richness I could not get with the photo.
I have been doing a lot of experimental work along with a new body of work lately and this was one of those little excursions I decided to do on a whim. Small and quick is satisfying sometimes.
All my previous paintings of sulfur piles are generally of the whole pile, in the background as another element.
Zoomed in for a detail like this and the pile looked otherworldly, more like a mountain from another planet.188

ReplyDeleteWow!
Very dramatic! The size surprises me. It appears to be so much larger!
Very, very exciting!
(The other day I posted a smaller work also! I agree with you a smaller painting can be satisfying. It is very good to experiment!)
Take care.
Michael
Thanks Michael,
ReplyDeleteWho knows, I may do a larger version of this.
Like doing thumbnails it allows us to see quickly the result.
Keep painting...
