“New York City Abstract”

Mixed Media on Canvas, 30 x 30 inches, 1998

During my senior year of high school I went to Manhattan to visit some galleries with one of my friends who was also an artist.  I remember seeing an abstract painting for thousands of dollars.  I had not made many abstract paintings if any by that point.  I said to myself I could do this. So the next week in class I found some different mediums and this painting emerged.  It was fun, so I made many more abstracts after that.  But they always have a story.
