Megagram for August 10

The piece above was uploaded to Instagram as 27 separate images which create a large tapestry on my profile. My source photography came from an early Wednesday morning at the train platform in Tacoma. The sun was coming up; it was already hot.

When I’m painting I tend to favaor very minimalist composition, but for these I think it’s a good opportunity to explore composition and design. So here I experimented with some pattern and abstraction right on top of a source photo. I like the direction and I want to continue it.
