Painting Progress - Large Black & White Painting
Progress on my large black, white, and grey painting.
Lately, I’ve been adding fine white vertical lines to emphasize and highlight the textures underneath. The lower part will become much darker and richer in black to ground the piece. As I work, the palette knife creates unexpected lines and layers that add depth and movement—it feels almost like the painting is guiding me where to go next.
Each day when I look at it, I notice something new—shapes, forms, emotions I hadn’t seen before. It’s a slow unfolding process, and I’m really enjoying where it’s taking me. Thank you for following along and for your continued interest in my work. 🖤🤍🎨
