Abstracted on Real No.6-20”x20” Acrylic

This is the last of my 20”x20” canvases I have. But I have collected canvases and paint for hundred artists and need to use them up. Some paint colors I have I am not sure why I got them. Like Terra Rossa. Soon I am going to figure out how to use them and other, unfamiliar colors that I have. I have many brushes but I use 2 or 3. But I guess there is always that magic brush that we need to get that another artist is using. Maybe that would do it.

I love to see grays in other artists’ works but in my practice, grays if any are incidentals and I do not use them on purpose. I thing the reason for that amounts to my not using the earth colors. I have seen some Russian artists use half a dozen ochres and others earth colors. I am not sure how they use them but they come out with fabulous grays. Grays make a small vivid color sparkle. If we are not decisive and change our minds constantly we get grays regardless.
