Color Blast

This piece was in weird progress for quite a while. It began with a heavy textured painting I made 2 years ago for one of my classes, even then I repainted it 2 times and wasn't happy with it. I found the amount of texture to be overwhelming and taking over the image. I ripped everything I could off (it was mostly different types of paper mixed with drywall) and coated it gesso and gave it some other texture with modeling paste. Over the next 2 months I was just covering what I could with left over paint from my students or from my other paintings, not knowing what I want it to look like or where I was going with it. When it finally started to look like something, I sat down and worked on it non stop for good 5 hours and this is the end result which I'm quite happy with. =]
