I’m always so literal when I paint. And on top of that, I see my images for months or even years before I paint them so once I finally get them out, I’m honestly a little bored by the end result. So I’ve decided to start playing around with process, color, and texture more and see what happens. I want the results to look abstract but still representational of the subject. I grew rainbow beets in my garden this year. I just LOVE the color of cut beets. I also wanted something to go with my kitchen table and bring some energy to the room.
I have plans to do several more in this style.
