Shed skins of paintings
peeled from abandoned palettes.
A playground for ghosts.

Loving the depth which I seem to struggle with 🙄 the colours are very vibrant.

The texture you see comes from layering palette scrapings on top of palette scrapings (dried acrylic), and colours always seem to look brighter on a computer screen don’t you think…Thank you Rose

A real powerful cornucopia John with many shed memories for ghosts to play with. Hope this is a clean up in preparation for many new artworks to come.

I like the idea of a “cornucopia” of colours Robert. Although this photo was from before I am in fact in the middle of (another) clean-up, or purge, right now. To make space for the muse to appear in…

Now I envy you John……cleaning up/purging is not one of my strong points…..and I know it is so necessary. I’m sure your Muse will like it too!

Excellent poem. I’ve had a long day and almost thought it said peeled from abandoned potatoes. But thank goodness I reread it. It’s funny how words can lead us into other directions. Thanks for sharing your art my friend. Enjoy your weekend.

“peeled from abandoned potatoes” I like much better than “palettes” – it’s so surreal and makes me smile…thanks for coming by Terry

Nice image Marina, like a film of the process of painting run backwards. Good to see you my friend, as always
