Rich saturated blues dominate this abstract piece. In the center left of the piece there are yellow, red and gray/green sections that suggest an object. Elsewhere the blue and black lines are looser, chaotic.

portrait oriented abstract piece with red, purple, blue, orange and white. There is a round orange circle on lower right. Blue and red strokes suggest an underlying strucure; white splatters suggests movement and problematizes the structure.

Thick and thin black lines on deep orange background. The thick black line circles outward from the middle. Thinner black lines, dots and arrows swim in the space in-between. Two black circles are filled in with solid colors, one green, the other red.

This painter's (@ehkoart.bsky.social) work has really been resonating with me. I love the layering and texture of her work. And in this one the purples purple/black speak to me.

Lower-left/upper-right linear energy here. Curves too. There is a gentle "twister" move (stroke to bottom, back and forth) from just above the mid-line that turns the lines, putting it into motion.
#abstractart #artsky #mixedmedia #myart
rich gray acrylic dominant background; upper left/lower right oriented thick dry brush strokes in addition to round-ish thumbprint like marks -- on top is blue and blue/black fountain pen ink oriented in the same fashion as the gray; also thin white occasional acrylic paint as well as some pinks and oranges appearing hear and there
