Day 5 of 30 paintings in 30 days


Once again I'm linking to Leslie Saeta's Slices of Life 30 paintings in 30 days.

I drastically changed my color palette today by beginning with a painted beige background I allowed to dry before moving forward, over which I added orange, yellow, and black.   When I saw what I had done, I wasn't sure if it was finished, but since I was really out of time, I decided to call it "Frenzied."  Maybe you'll be able to see where I got the name.

I love your colour scheme and it certainly is frenzied. The strokes have a ton of expression. Thanks for your comment on my return!

Love the colors here and I had to look for a translation for the word frenzied ( learn a new english word - my everday challenge lol)
The german translation also calls it kind of hectic or frantic ...
- so your painting fix perfect for me today ! My last night was quite "frenzied"- No sleep for me last night because of my little brother ( he is down syndromed and stays with us for 2 weeks)
laughed loud and made all kinds of noises the whole night long... even the dogs are tired just now ...
and I have to do so much in the kitchen - plums by the kilo are waiting for me to do something and
also chanterelles by the kilo ...
so I have to take a big cup of "happiness and good karma tea" and start the day!

I can sense the movement and frenzy in this piece. Not only are you creating neat abstracts, but I think some of these would make great backgrounds, too.

Quite like this one, yes I can see the "frenzied" movement in it. I also check out all the other days too.

Great idea on the Moos, love how you made the background for them. Isn't playing with alcohol and inks fun? It is like a "fix" for my addiction....LOL

Pat Bluebeard for me.....grin ( I like HIS stamp too)
