Design Simplicity: Think Motherwell, Kline, Rothko. A simply designed
piece (drawing, painting, print) that elicits elegance. The size should
be 18" x 24" or larger.

First attempt. Not simple enough.
Still not there. Shadow colors more interesting.
Cooler color but still not right.
Closest, but I don't think it's all that elegant. (Or simple.) This
project WASN'T simple!

"Shoreline"
acrylic I liked this shoreline pattern as an abstract
design but it only came together when I encased it in an oval shape.

"Rufus Hummer"
18" x 24"
Acrylic - I thought that I could simplify the design and still capture
the beauty of a hummingbird. Unfortunately I kept obsessing with
detail - but I like it in the end.

"Chinese Checkers"
acrylic This pattern of shapes interested me,
particularly the off-aligned grey one in the middle. It creates a nice
center of interest.
