So I just thought I would share a little bit about what I am making today.
The thinking might relate to something you are working on too.

As many of you know, I am a big proponent of understanding value contrast.

When there is big differences in value, however, it can make the differences
of color feel less by comparison.

The other cool idea that I tried that has really helped this busy little painting,
is using the differences of complexity.
In other words, having open areas as well as busy areas.

Once I opened up this design, the work became a lot stronger.

Of course this idea is hard to just write about so to have a look below,
and let me know in the comments if you can relate to these ideas.

I hope your year is starting off great….

I decided at the last minute to do a 60 day clean diet challenge where most of what I love to eat and drink
won’t be around for awhile…

But I figure this will give me so much energy that I will be able to make a ton more art!

What things are you going to do differently this year?

Let us all know in the comments below.

I hope this first Sunday of 2020 is fabulous!
