Abstract Landscape - "In Spring" by Melody Cleary

4/2/2018

0 Comments

 
Picture
This composition was based on a small black and white intuitive study.  The marks were random
but somehow a landscape image always comes out of me.  I'm very excited about this new way
of creating paintings that are alive with my personal marks.

"In Spring"
Acrylic mixed media on 140# watercolor paper
10.5 x 21 inches
$300 unframed

Abstract Landscape - final version

You can see that I eliminated large black areas since my last post of this piece.   However, I left random
​black marks to retain the abstracted quality and also to help the eyes move around.  At the top, there's now
a calm place for the eyes to rest.  Definitely is more light and airy now.  I have completed
​a companion piece, both 30x30 on canvas.  I have submitted these images to a designer for her
client's consideration.

This is the progress I've made since my previous post.  I'm pausing to consider the finishing strokes, but
​it's almost there.  Comments welcome.

I worked to strengthen the composition on this one by adding darker values and some warm yellows
to help direct the eyes to the center of interest.  There are rectangular pieces of papers that are
collaged onto the canvas surface prior to painting and one strip has some interesting alpha characters
which you can see just up from the bottom.

"Spring Thaw" is  available.  Contact me.

18x24x1.5 gallery canvas.

I've picked up the palette knife again to work on two 12 x 16 canvases that had paint on them
and were unfinished.  So the palette knife with some creamy acrylic with gel medium is a
great way to get coverage.  Both pieces will have the warmer green tones.

'Mother's Garden' Contemporary Floral Painting by Melody Cleary

New work! 
I'm going for an impressionistic feel perhaps leaning a bit into the abstract for my nature paintings.  I haven't used reds/pinks much in my former work so this is fun.  The photo does not reflect the saturation of the orange or the violet blues, but it's difficult to get all colors represented perfectly.

I haven't done a larger painting in a while
due to shoulder issues, and have to work
for short periods if I do.  This is an
18x24 abstract floral I'm working on
- happy with it so far  but it is 'in process'.
