bridge abstract oil on canvas 25x30
Another painting that I've been working on where after many phases, it ended up pretty far from where it started. And yes, I am definitely pulling from the Diebenkorn bag of tricks here. I have another bridge/overpass painting in the works and will most likely have several more to come. The abstracted bridge here is not only referencing an actual bridge where some bad stuff happened overseas, but it's also serving as a metaphor for my recent ability to reconcile some things I've been dealing with from that time. I think we all have bridges or obstacles of some sort to deal with, and often times sharing those experiences can be helpful for more than one person.
