Rain Drops - In Progress

I know, I know, I always show things in progress and rarely show them finished - I'm trying to break that habit, I swear! This painting was something I wanted to start but I had no idea what I wanted it to be when it was finished. I have an idea now, but I'm not sure whether I'll stick with it or not. We'll see. Either way, I promise to show it when it's finished!!

I started with just warm colors:

Another layer of them, I like warm colors!

And then a layer of cool colors:

There are a lot of raindrops (or teardrops, I guess) in my work these days. It's not really a conscious thing, I feel the urge to draw them or paint them, so I do. They sometimes show at the end and sometimes don't. For now, I'm just going with the raindrop theme.

  1. I go through those kinds of phases, too, where symbols show up unbidden. I figure they're coming up for a reason so I go with it. :) I love the warm/cool portal you've got going on here!

  4. Love the painting - no matter what stage it's in. It'salways interesting when a symbol or set of symbols shows up and keeps wanting to be seen.
