Superb placement of shapes, Derek, and the lines give the entire painting a dynamism that is magnetic. You're superb at these abstracts!

Agree yes flat shapes with areas suggestions of depth colour and contrast. Another beauty Derek

Thanks Michael, I did make the photo into B&W then squinted to see tones. The big area top left is actually a shiny red cylinder.

Eleventyeight as my hashing pals called my new age recently, it's supposed to sound better. Trying to paint every day in acrylics using only expired credit/debit cards, and partially succeeding as they're only for me and not show these days.
