Mosaic of Color

In previous posts of my artwork, I mentioned how I have been missing the colors of the spring. My first 2 paintings that I created focused very much on this theme of lack of color. Now spring has come a long way and we have flowers and green grass and leaves on the trees that have somewhat inspired this latest piece. Now, do you remember as a kid taking a piece of paper drawing a bunch of lines and curves etc etc and then taking colored pens or pencils or crayons and filling in all of those little nooks and crannies that you created. I loved doing this as a kid because I thought all of the colors mixed together just made for an interesting cheerful piece of art. I don't have any of those pieces anymore and who knows where they went. That's a few years ago, like 35-40 somewhere in there.  When I started this little project I had no idea that it would lead to four other paintings that are in progress. I didn't really think I would enjoy painting. I remember going once to one of those Night painting outings and it was the most stressful thing I had ever done. Now maybe because I've decided that I'm just going to do what I want it's become fun. I don't know where it's going to go if it's going to lead to anything at all other than just a nice way to relax and enjoy the process.
