Hope For Tomorrow

My latest piece, this is mostly acrylic paint and a little bit of matte gel medium, with a couple of very old tattered book pages underneath the right side.

On a 9 x 12 wrapped canvas, I used a limited palette of colors to make another "Street Wall". The decay and grunge are there, but they don't look depressing. Age has softened the colors rather than beat them up. 

I think I will need to start using some larger canvasses. I am thinking that these would look good larger! I really like it now, but I'm going to grow a little bit and start doing art a bit bigger!


Come see my latest postcards I've received on Postcards Buffet!
