I present to you the fruits of the this week’s labor: two new geometric paintings with a flowing design. While I put considerable thought and effort into designing these, when I finished these paintings I felt oddly neutral. Can’t explain why this happens. But it happens, and it’s part of the process. It’s not up to me what the “consensus” will be on these works.

Regardless, I’m in the process of reworking this concept for more paintings — reconsidering how much negative space to let in, what colors to use, how many stripes to involve, etc. While I feel like I’m not there with these, I can live with the uncertainty. And that’s what keeps me going.
