Years ago, I stretched a canvas by piecing together pieces of canvas, priming it, and giving it several coats of gesso. I wasn't completely sure where to go with it. I added a few layers of thin paint and put it aside to think about.
And it's sat, untouched, ever since.
This week, I picked it up again and have been working with a very expressionistic style to create something of interest, incorporating some of the interesting features of a pieced canvas.
It's still evolving but there is something happening on this canvas now.
It's still coming together. I have a few more ideas before it is finalized.
It's been very freeing to work in this uncharted way,
listening as I go... sensing the direction.
