RE: ABSTRACT EXPLORATIONS painting 2018.

Very colorful. I like the yellow-blue combination. It looks like an astronomical space, is it? Or microscope elements?

Oil on wood. You mean wood is your canvass? Is it not hard for oil to stick or penetrate on wood? Won't it drip over time?

I have been painting on wood for the past 20 years and I love it. I find canvases are not solid enough. I treat the wood with a base cover and also sand it soft. The wood is what we call in Spain, Tablero marino, meaning it is used to make boats and these panels don´t move. Thank you for the interest. I hope this helps you make a picture of what the base is made of.

Now I realized, it sounds like using wood is more practical and durable than painting on canvass and putting it on a frame. Yes, that helps me to have a better idea of what you are using so thank you! 😊
