Abstract Painting - In The Moment

Attempting to paint in an abstract manner, making the first brush-stroke gets momentum going.

I let the paint flow. Leave the mind to wonder.
Bright, bold and spontaneous or a quiet , meditative and reflective rhythm sets in.

Your inspiration might be defined in the moment. Take the viewer on a journey. A glimpse into a story. Outer and inner worlds mingle with metaphor. There can be tension and harmony. Subtle reference to your subject matter.

Paint applied thick, thin, over, under or scratched away. Glazing for some depth and interest.

Step away, breath in the moment ... ( or light a cigarette)

Madonna and Child - In Abstract

One of my many favourite paintings , unfortunately sold some time ago.

This abstract painting was inspired by a particular waterfall in Hogsback, Eastern Cape.
Hence the title ' Madonna and Child ' .

Spending some time beneath this waterfall sure is invigorating !

If you happen to be in Hogsback , do visit this waterfall ! In summer .
