Productive Insomnia...

I'm not sure why but lately I've been experiencing these wonderful bouts of insomnia. Maybe it's the pending "holiday season", maybe I eat too late at night, I have no idea... the one thing I do know is that my insomnia seems to be accompanied by loads of creativity and I am loving it! (not loving it so much the next morning when I have to go to work... but still loving it none the less) :)

I've been on an abstract kick as of late - there's just something very freeing/therapeutic about simply spreading ink on a canvas and intuitively playing around, totally unafraid of making a mistakes.  I'm very happy to say that I'm on a huge creative learning curve right now!

Below is the latest product of my insomnia (excuse the poor quality photo...I really must take a better one in the daylight as this is my favourite painting so far)

My current late night project is a small triptych, hopefully I will finish it soon and be able to post some pics ;) but at the same time, I really need to get some sleep! :D

Good night everyone!

More Experiementing and Another Finished Painting :)

Hello again! I'm feeling very inspired lately and willing to let loose and experiment so I thought I'd share! :) It feels great to let go of the need to detail the death out of a painting for a change though I'm sure the "detail" will make it's way into this new style of painting at some point ;)

This is the latest finished piece of a series of paintings I am working on...

This particular piece is already sold but I am looking forward to creating many more incorporating the same style, I hope you enjoy! :)
