About The Artwork
This abstract is the fourth in my abstract astral series. As always, I waited to see where the color and form would lead me. This time, a face developed. I could feel the "I am less than" emotion that emanated from this being, almost as if it did not measure up in some way. Maybe conceptualizing and comparing and judging is a trait that shows up in all sentient beings of some intelligence? Colors are electric, with yellow, pink, red, green-blue, and green. When I look back at the painting, I see more of how I view reality. It is great to enjoy painting and also have it teach me about myself. The edges are painted. The medium is Liquitex Heavy Body Acrylic. It is finished with Liquitex Gloss Medium and Varnish. A hanging wire is attached. A certificate of authenticity is provided.

United States
I am a Texas artist and have painted for most of my 71 years, being from a family of artists. My mother's youngest sister, aunt Patsy, spent a lot of time with me, guiding and encouraging me, and I credit her for my passion for art. She painted under the name of "von." When she died in August of 2018, I began placing "von" somewhere on the face of each painting as an acknowledgment of her role in my artistic endeavors. My inspirations come from my home environment in Texas. Things that I have taken for granted all my life are now frequent subjects for art. Mesquites, cactus, old barns and shacks, windmills, wooden fence posts, wildflowers and the like are favorite subjects. I am a colorist, and I enjoy using color to give new life to otherwise fading beauty. In addition to color, I strive for dimension, movement, depth and unusual perspective.
