HavingBeenThereAndComingBack

a current wip. as is , 52 x 72 inches. I like a lot of what is going on. The gestures are free and move the eye around. I do not like the "peace sign" ish thing going on in the upper right. it will soon be gone. This piece will most likely be the center of a triptych. all crit & comments welcome.

Re: HavingBeenThereAndComingBack

The palette is lovely altho to me theres a bit of an overreliance on orange; a touch of a pale minty green will help. It can be a wonderful work on its own, without the need for a tryptich. I'd simplify the work and give it more white space to let it breathe.

I like what I see so far, although I agree with you about the peace sign. Personally I like the orange tones and I hope you keep the white areas. Lots of action in this. Looking forward to the next stage!

Very inspired and spirited imagery in this one. I hope you post the finish.
