I’ll be working on the background of “Winged Foal”, and I expect it will take some time.  Rather than bore you with repetitive pictures of the progress, I thought I’d post something I’ve shown no one, until now.

A few years back I was totally stuck.  My representational art was coming out less than awesome.  So, I decided to change styles to get out of the rut.  I got involved in the process, and did a couple of abstracts.  Here’s one, don’t  have a title for it.

Doing these broke me out of my rut, and I suggest it to any of you artists who find yourself completely stuck.

The part that’s relevant, though, is  that I’m using the same idea in the background of “Winged Foal”.  Maybe not as dramatic, but I’m going to blast some music and get into the process of making an abstract blue sky.

And a word of thanks to all my followers, you encourage me so much with your “likes”.  I gave up on art for a while, because the art world didn’t welcome my work, and I felt discouraged, like I was beating my head against a brick wall.  To know that there are people who do like my work, encourages me.  Thanks.
