Things in progress the other day. #art #painting #wip #abstractpainting https://instagr.am/p/CdgBCO4u5mG/

The next one. Trying out other colors. #painting #art #abstractart #abstractpainting https://instagr.am/p/Cda7TfYuWI7/

The next one! I know the right side is crooked, but I didn’t want to cover over the edge of the red, which was good. #art #painting #abstractart #abstractpainting https://instagr.am/p/CdYORHwuHBy/

Along similar lines. I just didn’t “fill it in.” #art #painting #abstractart #abstractpainting https://instagr.am/p/CdV0ZuuMGxO/

The next one. Less familiar colors for me to use. #art #painting #abstractart #abstractpainting. https://instagr.am/p/CdODmpALQjf/

I am really excited by this painting. I’m not sure what to call it. I have made some others in this style before. #art #painting #paletteknifepainting #abstractart #abstractpainting https://instagr.am/p/CdLnSC6LGpr/

3 of a kind! I decided to make 3 paintings with the same colors, tools and overall composition and compare them. What do you think of the differences? Have a favorite? #art #painting #landscape #seascape #seascapepainting https://instagr.am/p/CdGdC8QuiP_/

Blue and gold. #painting #abstractart #abstractpainting https://instagr.am/p/CdDyYVJrFJe/

Another one! A major difference about this one is that I did the layers without waiting for the previous layers to dry, so there is some color mixing on the canvas. Usually I prefer the crisp distinctions with dried layers, but I like this result and I like trying different methods. #art #painting #abstractart #abstractpainting #paintingprocess https://instagr.am/p/Cc8CpIDMa5U/

I had one of those tiny compositions in this art show that was only for tiny, 3x3 inch compositions. It took place at the Hadley Library and was very fun. #art #tinyart #smallart #artshow #hadleylibrary #painting https://instagr.am/p/Cc5g9o_sDLi/

The next in this series. “Melodies” #art #painting #abstractart #abstractpainting https://instagr.am/p/Ccnc1besJFh/

[jimdubois]

A new painting. Some close-ups and the whole thing. It reminds me of a musical composition. Since this is kind of large, some detail doesn’t come through in these photos, but it gives a good overall idea of the composition. #art #painting #abstractart #abstractpainting https://instagr.am/p/CciXYmPLdvJ/

Close up and total, of a new painting. I really like this one, because it is its own self. #art #painting #abstractart #abstractpainting #composition https://instagr.am/p/CcYTlE2LXR1/

I put maybe ten layers of paint on this one. So many were terrible, yet I like this result. The canvas is very heavy! #art #painting #abstractart #abstractpainting #artprocess https://instagr.am/p/CcF9KdvLhAp/
