A FORUM OF DISCUSSION, CRITIQUE AND SHARING WITH CANADIAN ARTIST BRIAN SIMONS. THE ARTIST'S WORK CAN BE SEEN AT HIS OFFICIAL WEBSITE: http://www.briansimons.com
This one done today, 24x30" acrylic. Tried to keep the colors mutted and soft for an atmosphere effect. A bit messy , but I think I like it. Comments welcome. Brian
Also I've noticed that you are painting over canvases (at least that's what I thought) I really like the extra layer/looseness that it gives your work.
yeah brian, i think this really works--it's lovely. i think it would be easy for this style to be dull or boring, but i think there's a soft dream-like quality in this one that's very engaging. i've used this description before... there's a story book quality to me in this one.
Again Brian, Fabulous. I thought this one was Daves....and I thought there can't be any freighters in Arizona!! I love the "messyness!!"
