"Firefly, 2017" is 30x40", mixed media on canvas.  It started as one of my "brush rags," collecting whatever paint I had on my brush at the time from another painting.  Gradually it took on a personality.  Shapes were forming in the random brushwork.  Yesterday I decided to experiment with mark-making using oil pastel over the acrylic, carving out some of those shapes.  Then I went back in with paint, adding more layers.  I like the movement and depth, and the flicker of light throughout makes me think of fireflies dancing around at dusk.  I honestly think this piece would be dynamic at a monumental scale, at least 6x8'.  Perhaps this was a study for a future painting.  :)
