My abstract paintings

Here are some collages of the abstract work I have been playing with. I am having so

 much fun and it is so freeing, not to care what anyone thinks. For me it is just the feel 

of the paint rolling off the brush and other tools, and the harmony and contrast

 of the colors, shapes and textures. 

Can't wait to paint large canvas!

Painting 21 - going more abstract

I am abstracting my art more and more now and am happy with the way it is going. I am striving for a more contemporary, unique style, personalized by the places I am at in my life.

 I hope you will follow on my colorful mixed media journey.

Painting #5 in painting challenge "Sugar Beach"

5 x 7 Acrylic on canvas panel

Sugar Beach also known as Kealia Beach, is said to be the longest beach on Maui. It stretches from North Kihei to Ma'alaea- about 2 1/2 miles. Sometimes I walk parts of it with my dog Oliver. Also have found lots of shells in the winter time there.

Painting # 4 in 30 day challenge "Kaho'olawe Island"

Another painting from Hidden Beach in Maui, Hawaii. This is the view of Kaho'olawe Island. It is the smallest of the 8 main volcanic islands in the Hawaiian Islands and is about 7 miles southwest of Maui. It is now a reserve and being restored after the military used it for target practice for years.

"Halama Street Sunset"

Love these sunsets!

30 in 30 painting challenge-painting number 1 "Makena Surf"

I love the contrast of the blue waters against the black lava rocks in Makena! I drive over here a lot since it is close to home and have painted several paintings from the area. This 5 x 7 acrylic on canvas is the first in a 30 day challenge to produce 30 paintings-no problem!

But it was the 4th painting of the day. I started with 3 ACEOs first, then this 5 x 7 acrylic on canvas panel. I really prefer painting on the hard panels because the acrylic paint just glides on. But since I have some canvas panels prepared, I'll use them.
