Cobalt Blue abstract art

30x22 acrylic on Lanaquarelle 140 lb hot press paper, painted last week in Douglas Walton's workshop here at our Heritage Museum. Initially I had designed this to be a horizontal nonobjective work, with cobalt sky at the top. However, Doug likes to change, shake up, and mix up, so he had me turn it vertically then finish development. Lastly, I used bubble wrap stamping to unify the design and you can see it if you look closer or enlarge the image. Again, our work was all developed from 3x3 tiny squares of various color combinations.

Douglas Walton's Art

This is an acrylic collage/mixed media on 12x12 wrapped canvas done by M. Douglas Walton, who just finished up a week long class with most of the Caboose artists this week in Big Spring, TX.  Held at the Heritage Museum, he pushed and guided us in the right design paths to better artistic expression.  With this work shown here, he added tissue paper collage and jewelry in a nonobjective pattern of vibrant primary colors balanced by calming neutrals.  I loved this one so purchased it for my home.
