Pink series 2

Hi Dominique,

I have to say, I’m quite a fan of this last piece. I like the combination of figuration and abstraction and I think that there’s something at the same time forceful and delicate at the same time. I took it upon myself to do a little draw-over but it’s different from the way I usually do them, which is for corrections. Here I just tried to take what you did and push it a little further in both the figuration and abstraction directions. I think what you have here is very spontaneous, seemingly done quickly, but I also believe that you could work longer on the pieces, occasionally destroying parts, but also finding new ways to rebuild and revitalize them. In a sense, layering more, accenting more, even using more media of different kinds, like ink. My draw-over is just an attempt at pushing it further in my way. You would most likely do it differently, but I recommend “overworking” a little. Also, check out the artist Anatoly Zverev. He was completely crazy, but I think his paintings are remarkable.

Let me know what you think, and keep up the great work!

Iliya

Thank you for your analyse. I am a “fast worker”, it is really hard for me to go back to a painting. Another work with a different palette:
