CRUSHING GRAPES

CRUSHING GRAPES is an Acrylic Abstract Artwork on Quality A3 Paper and states the obvious. Being an Intuitive Artist often, after finishing a painting it will then reveal itself to me. With Purple, Mauve, Yellow-Green, Aqua and moments of Black it just reminded me of the fun in CRUSHING grapes, the laughter, exhaustion, the tactile toes with grapes squeezing through, th fun of it all!
