For this super bright piece, I wanted to try something different; messy, colourful and yes...bright. The kind of bright that makes your eyes hurt kinda bright LOL! And even though I had that as an idea, I find it a little hard to execute it. And along the way as days passed, I have different ideas each time.
It seemed to take forever. I was going through stuff during the process of this painting (sleepless nights, sick kids, sick me ....etc) Just like most of my other paintings, each one is painted at a certain time of my life and it reflects of what I am going through at that point of time. It could be live art or abstract or fluid art. Or perhaps I was just trying to experiment something new.
In progress
As for the technique, I wanted to try something different. My ideas kept on changing almost everyday for weeks but it came to a halt along the way because I couldn’t make up my mind. As I mentioned earlier, I also find it hard to execute what I’m thinking. I have my family that walked into my room and I get mixed reactions. Probably a good thing I guess...it provoked some sort of conversation or emotion regardless it’s good or not.
The sides are painted black
I was going through one of my most cluttered mind moments in recent years. With that said, I would seemed to like have a black cloud over my head on some days and I would like to express in painting something so colourful to combat my feelings of everyday bleakness. And abstract seemed to be the right choice.
PS - My kids have been playing those colourful balls in my room and some of them got stuck under the bed. I found them and clean it. And I realised it’s just as colourful as the painting.
By the way, those black blue line pattern are IKEA paper napkins.
