Using oils in abstract painting can be a challenge for artists who usually pursue realism.
Here is the second painting where i brought all elements of the composition down to their basic symbols.
To keep the vibrancy of the paint and create an extra layer of color, i painted a bright red 'ground' onto canvas. The textured greens on top are oil mixed with a spectra gel, oil and turps solution.
This work is about a place i used to live, in the bottom left corner are depictions of the huge gas towers that were a landmark in the area, and fascinating to me as a child.
Thoughts and criticisms welcome! Resteem if you think others may enjoy this.
