Introducing Cerulean Rhapsody

At long last, a photo of my latest Post-Consumerist piece, Cerulean Rhapsody. 

Cerulean Rhapsody, avant garde contemporary abstract painting in shades of cerulean blue, cyan, and turquoise on recycled paper and cardboard

Cerulean Rhapsody, 2011
Acrylic, ink, watercolor, and latex on paper and cardboard
38” x 46”
$1000
It will debut at my solo show tomorrow night in the Second Floor Gallery of the Fine Arts Building.   This piece is the first one I've used latex paint in.  I used it only as a base coat and went over it numerous times with acrylics, as well as latex and ink.  When I fall in love with a color, I use it in every level of transparency and opacity.  You'll never guess what inspired me:

the brilliant blue of my Sony Vaio laptop was the inspiration for the color scheme of Cerulean Rhapsody


That's right, my new laptop was my inspiration.  What a magical shade of blue.

If you happen upon this post after it's been sold, don't despair. I can make a similar custom painting for you. Click here to learn more about my commissioned art process.
