Marks and Intuitive Exploration

Here's a 12 x 12 cradled wood panel on the easel today.  
The many marks are what feed my intuition and generate visual excitement for me.
What comes next?  Sometimes I don't know but it will happen.

Just a cell phone pic to share my latest abstract studies....possibly finished works.  We'll see.
These are acrylic and pencils on watercolor paper.  These excite me and I hope this 
translates over to the viewer!

During the process, I sometimes use a mat to find more pleasing compositions within the larger work.
These three are examples from today's session.

Activating the substrate

Delving into abstract I have learned to 'activate' the canvas, paper, or board which helps greatly
to just 'get going' and get past that blank surface.  No preconceived notions....just being free.  This, itself,
creates some wonderful design surprises when I zoom in to the piece at this exploratory stage.  
Exciting!!
