Artist's log, star date 12.12.2023. We have gone where no artist has gone before and in every instance we have discovered new shapes, new colours and explored new themes until the end of the universe and beyond. I may have borrowed some of that from a certain TV show/movie franchise. The goal of this painting was to create an earthy abstract scene with lush foliage and sweeping branch-like structures interspersed with geometric elements. It was part of my ongoing palette cleanser series where I literally clean my palette with a brush and use the paint to make these experimental compositions. After the Toronto trip my dirty water bottle (I keep all the dirty water and dispose of it in a sink), had an interesting grey-orange tint to it, probably from all the concrete and buildings, combined with the intense magenta I used for the CN tower at night scene. On location I struggle to find colour, but with the abstracts I can as much or as little as I like.
