Homage to Irvine 2

By  Maria Kuipers 2019
Enjoying expression of line and pattern through a layering process. Using 5 or 6 saturated colours, some mixed with white for pastels, but no black in the mix. Loose acrylics and different brush size and shapes. Great fun - however after an expressive free start, I kept an eye on the development of the composition and colour & shape relationships, particularly the last 2 layers.
