Figure Abstraction
Yellow Beret
2012
10x8
oil
Okay, I know this painting is a little strange. But I am posting it because it feels like a leap in progress towards my goal to work with the figure in a very abstract manner.
I am trying to hybridize my figurative work with my non-objective, abstract work. It would seem simple enough, but it has proven to be challenging.
Risk taking with your work is, well, risky!! There is something appealing, expressive about this. I see something tentative in the effort as well as the subject. But our grasp on everything is tenuous if not tentative, huh?
