The Kiss of Death


Here is the second painting. I did this from a drawing and absolutely loved the minimalism. I wanted it to be simple but descriptive. The negative shapes really make this composition dynamic. I am really proud of how I manipulated the ink and brush. I was tempted to keep working and working... but there does come a time when one too many brush strokes ruins a painting. 

I was afraid that ink would bleed on these canvas panels- it doesn't - in fact it creates a really cool texture. 

*feel free to comment, I'd love to know what you think*
