The Castle


amazingly I got some time to work on another canvas during the hectic framing last night. A canvas that has a nondescript abstract "design" on it that had sat unused for over a week or two. The Castle is not what I expected. I pictured a moody, dark and dreary scene. A few moments of color, a few bursts of life, but instead it turned into a very contrasted and bold scene. A distinct foreground to background relationship, a stark difference between the "structured" and the "flowing".... It almost creates a 3D effect, separating the two distinct areas. I don't know if that seperation is a good thing, and I'm not sure if it's done yet, but I have to say I probably haven't been this interested in a castle since I was at DisneyWorld back in the day...
