Colourful, bright and shaped as you travel along its line of expressive progression.
When complementarities are juxtaposed, they not only vibrate but cancel one and the other out, creating definite rhythm. Light and dark colours follow in sequence like musical notes in colour density and space. Brilliant colours create an even flowing movement that dances to rest at larger, less intensely space of larger shapes of colour.
Bold, big, bright slabs of colour applied in an abstract expressionist style. Inspired by old travel poster prints, these modern abstract painted version requires the viewer to look for shapes and features.

This artwork is panted alla prima, no pencil or charcoal sketching is done, and thick paint is mixed on the canvas, avoiding any mixing on the palette. What this archives is a highly saturated and abstract expressions painting. Far more interesting in texture and colours juxtaposed take and give to the other colour laid next to it.
It's truly exciting to paint which removes any stiffness and academic restrictions with every brush stroke made to count and express the contour of the face breathing live and accidental likeness which was not my priority.
Textured and dramatic play of form, shades, light interact and play to add life and movement, complementing the juxtapositions of shape and form.
Thick and lush paint has a unique dimensional abstract quality.
