Artwork Description

Just sometimes things don't exactly as planed. Well this painting is the fourth attempt at getting it right.

I just could not get the splash the way I wanted it. So I kept washing ( I should say hosed ) it off on the front lawn. Don't laugh, many have been hosed off.

This one is what I wanted. A splash that carried the paint in an abstract of motion.

Now the name. Well by the time I had it right I was going crazy. And basically as Forrest Gump said
" Crazy is as crazy does "
I still have a lot of fun painting these crazy ones.

This painting is colourful and vibrant, One can't help but have a close look at the abstract splash.

The painting is 91 cm high and 122 cm wide and 4 cm deep. It is finished in a subtle satin varnish that enhances the colour and protects the paint.

There is no need for a frame as the edges are fully painted.

On the back is a signed and dated Certificate of Authenticity. It is wired ready to hang and has felt cushions to protect your walls.
