Finishing My Abstract Paintings

Work needed to be done on some of my latest paintings to finish them.  The last abstract painting, “Bubbles,” needed to have the white painted around the edges and a signature in order to be finished.  I now have done that.

For the new painting which was begun last Wednesday, I repainted most of it because the paint, when dry, was just too sparse.  Along one corner I tried to make it appear as if there were pipes or tubes with rounded surfaces.  That’s difficult in acrylics because blending is not easy.  It’s much easier to blend when working in oils.  Anyway, I finished all that, but still have the finishing marks to add and a signature.  Hopefully, I’ll post it tomorrow or soon.
