Abstract or Non-objective Form

These paintings were made using the concept that oil resists water. I would flood the white canvas with water then spill the liquified oil paint into the puddle and play with it until I got the image I was pleased with. It sometimes took two or three days for the water to fully evaporate and another week or two for the oil paint to completely dry. But the results were worth the wait.

Viridian IX: 55"x67" oil on canvas... viridian is one of my favorite colors. The pigment is made from hydrated oxide of chromium.
