I woke up pretty depressed today due to my pain and isolation.
Most holidays are hard for me as I am isolated in a room and have been in too much pain for years to leave my home let alone travel. I decided to get some of these feelings out onto canvas when I saw that today's color was red and that suited my mood perfectly. It was rather hard to get a good capture of the abstract painting I made but here are some photos of it:
It is so hard trying to get this photo to capture the painting at night but here is another photo:
Neither one really does it full justice to be honest. So, there is my color challenge for today. I am loving how much I can use the daily color challenge to my advantage. I used it as an exercise in overcoming my fear of spiders and now I am using it to express my pain. I used it to try a new art medium in the past. In general it gets me inspired. I just love the color challenge!

This is really good, it feels like a wound but it also feels sort of cosmic. It gives me a vibe of catharsis. Does it have a name?

Yes it was definitely a feeling piece. And you are pretty spot on. I didn't have fresh canvas so I was actually painting over a canvas that was going to be cosmic with red and wanted to express pain and blood but then realized I liked keeping the center bit and having it look a bit cosmic. :) No, no name. Most of my pieces lack names to be honest.

Names definitely aren't necessary; sometimes they can be insightful, but I think this piece provokes my imagination more without a name.

Yeah I feel that way with most of my work I guess. XD Some of it I plan to name but just don't get around to doing.

I can see the beauty in it. I love abstract art. I think that is the route my daughter is taking with her painting.

I usually don't do abstract but I have been doing some lately. I have two on my wall right now. :) It is nice to branch out and abstract art feels really pure, and lets me get all my feelings out there.
