What Goes Around...by Texas Contemporary Abstract Artist Filomena Booth

What Goes Around...
40"x40"x1.5"
Acrylic on Canvas

Sometimes it's nice to try something completely different for a change.  My compositions are generally more geometric, based on rectangles and squares.  Last week, after texturing the canvas, I decided to begin the painting with large, sweeping shapes.  Lots more texturing and metallic touches later and this spiral emerged.  I wish the sunlight outside had been brighter when I took this picture...there is no beige in the painting.  I finagled the best I could with Photoshop, but couldn't get the pale sage green quite right.  I'll try again on a sunnier day.

This painting has not yet been posted on either one of my online art gallery sites, ArtQuiver and Artfulhome.  For purchase information, please contact me.

I am one of the Featured Artists on ArtQuiver this week and my work is being offered for sale for a limited time.  Please click here to visit my ArtQuiver gallery.
