A Long Series Painting I Like.

Long Series.

I was looking through my Long Series of 12×12 inch mixed media paintings, and I came across this one that I really like. The use of intense black was probably the reason it caught my eye.

The other thing about it that made me stop and think was that I have no memory of doing it. The Long Series is 1000, 12×12 inch  paintings, and there are too many for the mind to absorb. How long do we look at paintings? If there is too much information, or too much visual stimulus, I think we tend to look at things in brief spurts, and things become little more than wallpaper.

The Replacements #10.

For each of my Long Series paintings that I sell, I intend to do a replacement painting. I recently finished the Long Series, and I have 18 replacements to do.
