But it is very exciting, and caught my eye immediately.

Sometimes no sense of idea turns into a brilliant idea ;-)

Chgeers Shirley and Ivan. Going to sleep on it a day or two and get on with other stuff.

It's good to escape in paint for a while, I know the feeling. It's turned out well.

Thanks Fred, we will wait and see.

How did I write that twice, think I need a break!!

I think it's a beauty Derek pleasing like poetry

Thanks again Fred and then dennis

I like abstract paintings Derek and this is nearly there. It needs (in my humble opinion ) some darker shapes to pull it together and that will be it.

Thanks Satu. As it happens when I go back to it I have an idea on that basis, so let's see.

Haven't a clue Derek, but it's fresh and exciting and I like it!!!

Turned upside down, Derek, I see an industrial landscape, with some trees in the central blue bit.There could be what looks like a big tank or drum on the right. An intriguing abstract anyway!

It certainly is interesting Derek, it's got quite a rhythmic movement to it.

Amazing painting Derek, no sense makes a lot of sense.. I love it :)

Does it matter if it doesn't seem to go anywhere or say anything - at least you are making marks. When I hit the proverbial block - I just sit and stare at the paper!

Thanks Fiona, Chandra,Marjorie, Maria and Julie. Kind and encouraging words indeed, but it's got to change fo the better hopfeully sometime when?

Actually I like this very much, Derek. The use of shapes and space really caught my eye. I have no idea what it is, but it's brilliant!

Cheers Seok, too bad, it's under two other paintings now.

40 x 30cms on board. What am I doing? Where is this going? Haven't a clue, just started to make marks and colours and getting nowhere fast. Have turned it every way and still no sense or idea..

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.
