Knock, Knock, Mr. Abstract

I've been playing around with the idea of trying my hand at an abstract, non representational, painting. I love pushing paint around and working with color. Some of the limitations I put upon myself when I'm working on my normal subject matter causes me to tighten up. I always seem to be fighting that. 

This canvas was very enjoyable and freeing. Though I still had a subject in mind, I was able to concern myself with color, texture and paint application. I might have to do a few more of these.
