It's all about the Blue Painting by Caroline Collom

Painting: Oil on Canvas.

This painting is inspired by an impromptu drawing I did in my studio. I then realised I wanted to re create the sketch into a painting but maintain its unfinished nature and fluid lines into a more structured composition. I wanted the scribble across the page to hold a tension and then plunge you into the blue pool to escape. The forced nature of the line work is then forgotten as you then drift to the blue section to breathe and re evaluate the other marks. I work in oil paint so that I am able to create layers and work back into areas revealing layers before. Oil always has a great richness and the blue in this painting exemplifies my love for oil.
