"Shifting Orange" - 3 Panel Abstract

3 panels each: 18"x36" acrylic on canvas.  In this piece I tried to let the texture stand out and the fluidity of the piece be the main emphasis.  I love the organic feel of it.  Usually when I'm painting I create the lines, but in this case I let the lines create & direct me... if that makes any sense.  The buyer wanted lots of burnt oranges & browns.. which I love.  But have a hard time staying monochromatic because of my love for bright vibrant colors.  So staying within the warm color wheel was challenging, but the outcome was well worth it!  Overall size of the piece is 58"wide x36"high x1.5"deep.  scroll down to see the full picture of the entire piece...






Picture is sent from the buyer of the commissioned piece.. I think it looks amazing against the gray wall.
