"Yellow and Blue No. 2" is a large abstract painting done in acrylic on canvas.  The overall measurements are 40 inches tall by 30 inches wide, with a 1.5 inch deep gallery-style edge.  
I am inspired by the works of Barnett Newman and Mark Rothko, among others, and this influence can be seen in the vertical bands of bronze yellow delineating the large fields of blue in the painting.  I applied very thin layers of paint along the middle of the work to achieve a soft transition in color, in juxtaposition to the stark lines elsewhere in the painting.  
The painting is signed in the lower right corner, and signed, dated, and titled on the back.  Wired and ready to hang.

Singular events and emotions are the inspiration for many of my paintings. I believe that color more than anything will provoke a response to a painting. If I can achieve an emotional charge between the viewer and my work, then I have reached my goal. Not everyone will say that they appreciate or understand abstract art. I say, don't stare at a work of art and try and force yourself to see what you think should be there. Look at what you see and accept it. That is is your totally unique experience with any work of art. The works of great artists such as Gerhard Richter, Joan Mitchell, Barnett Newman, Ad Reinhardt, Albert Oehlen, Christian Hetzel and many others feed my love of art and drive me to continue expanding my style.
