Morning Sun - Original Abstract Painting by Texas Artist Filomena de Andrade Booth

Morning Sun
30"x30"x1.5"
Acrylic on Canvas

Here are some "in progress" shots of this painting. 




I textured the canvas heavily with modeling paste before washing in the color.  To create movement and a composition, I "drew" in line work with black paint.  At this point, the painting began to suggest plant forms blowing in the wind.  I blocked in more color and obliterated areas with gesso.  As the painting developed, I started to define the forms with heavier layers of paint.  

I enjoy experimenting with textures and watching the painting develop as I play with the various elements until I'm finally satisfied with the result.
