Squares

Once again - very striking Eddie- your colour pallette is really balanced

I really like this. Everything works well together. Was it planned ahead or more spur-of-the-moment?

Bob- Thanks. I do try to balance the colors, although they're subject to change without notice. Bethe- The squares are designed in advance. I sketch them on graph paper, trying to get a nice composition. For this one, circles (and triangles- which hasn't been finished), I score the shapes on the non-emulsion side. As I do the unplanned scratching on the emulsion side, the scored areas are removed. I discovered this technique by accident... but it works for me.

couldn't agree more with what the others have said !
this image has such great movement ..
the blackness that surrounds the sides and background
really give a sense of motion, like an italian futurist painting.

Ditto to the others. I really like the composition - it just works great! I agree on the colors too. Keep working on these.

Way cool! Lots of motion, texture, and just plain energy in this one. The colors work really well, as do the marks. I feel that squares are symbols of stasis, containment, finality, whereas the marks are so contrastingly energized and noise-like, which creates a delicious tension.
