painting not thinking

Unblessed Birds oil on canvas 20"x30" 2008
The abstract works began last year when a friend asked me to make such a piece as a commission. I'm always open to trying out new ideas and methods. Not thinking about content allowed me to explore and play more with the paint. I did about 8 of these paintings and then found myself needing to return to the narratives. I still do them from time to time as studies or as a way to get out of my head.
