GRAND MESA
Acrylic - 11x14
I began GRAND MESA as an abstract piece of art, applying acrylic paint quickly in random shapes without thinking too much about it. It ended up in my Unfinished Pile for a while and when I pulled it out I immediately thought 'southwestern'.
I painted in a sky with some buttes in the distance and painted a moon. I used a stencil for the bird symbol and border design. Sometimes everything lines up creatively and you end up with something unexpected that you just love. So much fun!
