Derelict
27 January 2026
Acrylic on canvas
20 x 16 inches (50.8 x 40.6)
I wanted to paint something more abstract and I'd seen an abstract in a hotel that was bridge-like. Mine took more form and has more variety in color, but I'd still consider it abstract. I also painted this in an effort to not over paint. I might have overpainted a bit. I.e., the overall image could have been more abstract with less-defined shapes and/or edges. I did like the monochrome shape in the center. That brown applies very transparent and only gets darker with multiple layers. It's good to learn which colors behave the way they do.
I only took these two along-the-way shots.
This frame was looking for a home and I think it's a pretty good match.
