Thanks, I am flattered that it is causing a reaction in you


Unfortunately, I cannot make it into a print, as I do not have a good enough photo and the actual painting is in a different country than where I live now!

done some beautiful work! but to be called a prodigy is ridiculous! all love to throw colour around. its fun.... but it takes many years to understand and become an abstract artist. it just cheapens it for those of us who have been slogging away for decades.ο»Ώ recommend my favorite artists Pierre-Auguste Renoir, Frida Kahlo, Roberto Matta Gabino amaya cacho and Pablo Picasso. Thank you for your nice comment on my work too.

Thanks for the comment! You seem new here and I don’t remember commenting on your work. Were you previously under a different name?


Essentially I agree. There is a lot of hyperbole going on on dA and words like "prodigy" get tossed around all too easily.Β 


It also takes a lot more to be an abstract artist than just moving colour. This piece is from 2006 BTW, so it IS from more than a decade ago.Β 


Somehow, it is the work by me with most page views. I think this is because of the title "abstract" which makes the algorithms produce it in results for people who search for abstract.

Makes me think of snow overtaking a fiery landscape of some sort. The two contrasting sides have a nice effect, and the mixture of detailing on the upper half gives it a nice touch!

Very strong strokes. I wonder if it is an action painting.

valkea In reply to someonefromthesky [2011-05-12 07:23:23 +0000 UTC]

Hmmm... that's a good question. As far as I can remember, it was pretty spontaneous and the first abstract I had painted in a long while.

Not sure if that's enough to classify it as an action painting. The paint is pretty thick and I did not use any of the dripping techniques.

How would you define an action painting?
