Abstract or Awful?

This has so many layers of acrylic, it feels like an old piece of leather. Hmm… maybe that would be good for making some Christmas ornaments. Trying to stay on the sunny side, because I can’t decide if I pulled this out of the round file, or if I am a dope for posting it.

The tools this time were half of a Popsicle stick, and a palette knife. I started with a warm palette, made a mess of it all and then buried the evidence in blue, green and bisque. The single dark line on the right keeps catching my eye. I think I need to scrape some paint over it and rough it up a bit.

I couldn’t think of a name for this. I my change it if I submit this to Visual Aids 17th ANNUAL POSTCARDS FROM THE EDGE. Last night Hunger Games was on. I am really looking forward to the third installment of this series. I want to see President Snow get his butt bruised. Probably won’t happen until Part 2, but the previews look good.

Happy Monday all! May the odds be ever in your favor!
