“Wild Orchids “of my mind.48″x48” acrylic on canvas, abstract impression

Abstract expression is  the art of painting  a feeling instead of a picture,  like happiness,  sorrow, depression, music, love, hate.  An abstract expression is reaching inside of yourself to bring out  the feeling you have at that moment, unpremeditated, instant and spontaneous, put it on canvas and hope that whoever views  your painting can feel and maybe even  relate it to an experience they have had.  The beauty  is that everyone sees something different and it becomes personal to  the person, as if they  painted it themselves.  I love flowers and orchids, they have  a way  of getting  into my paintings subconsciously, after all the most beautiful things in life are  nature, flowers, music good food and wine.

“Blue Jays” 14″x14″ acrylic on canvas, abstract impression

I enjoy feeding  blue jays that come every morning to our backyard and scream for peanuts in a shell.   I decided to paint an abstract expression of the jays and found myself  hinting the jays in my painting.  I would call that an abstract impression because one can see the silhouettes of the birds.

“Bullfight” 30″x24″ acrylic on canvas, abstract impression

I have been to a few bullfights in my time, very exciting, the music , the warm colors,  you are happy that the toreador prevails but you feel a little sadness that the bull must die.  So it’s a mixed feeling, like the gladiators fighting for their lives knowing that you either live or die. There is a certain majestic powerful and arrogant  look that the bull displays, very intimidating.   The young toreador who looks so elegant but frail in his costume and cape.  A  David and Goliath story.
