"East Meets Hearts" by A.B.Deneweth

Happy Halloween everyone! Like many abstract painters, I love to incorporate a variety of symbols into my work and I particularly enjoy mixing Western and Eastern symbols as I've done hear with hearts and Chinese calligraphy symbols representing peace, harmony, the elements, etc.

I also wanted to play with a lot of high key color relationships which reminded me Japanese or Chinese packaging you might see with lots of candy pastel colors, bright reds, etc. Along those lines, I intentionally created a very busy canvas to add to the energy.

"Canyon Cadence" by A.B. Deneweth

This is an abstracted landscape using Golden liquid acrylics on synthetic Yupo "paper"--one of my favorite watermedia painting surfaces. I love the way the paint reacts to the super smooth surface and the mercurial color mixing you get as a result.

While I do paint "traditional" subjects on Yupo, like many painters, I find Yupo to be an amazing surface for creating bold abstracts.
