a new direction...

I am trying something new. This is one of a series I recently began. I will post another tomorrow when I can find some decent sunlight. I would like to know if anyone has any thoughts on the first one. (The actual painting isn't quite as dark as it appears here.) Also would like some thoughts on a title. Right now it is "Untitled 3".

i like it Meghan. It has a lot of depth, and the texture is interesting. It reminds me of an attic, or some sort of small room. The face seems to be looking into it, or thinking about it.

Its pretty good ," Attic "would be better than untitled number anything . Kinda fits it - seems still , quiet , time momentaryly frozen -"Forgotten Memories"?? - but then again if its an abstraction you may want to name it something other than what it reminds you of to further complicate the riddle - to other viewers - like for example - calling it ......."Bull Run or Big Game or some action name to contradict the stillness of the basic read of it ..... just some thougts to feed on ///- or vague titles - like ....wonderland - leaves alot to the imagination ...and gives the viewer room for various interpertations . Its all in what you want to convey - like the painting itself .... some titles fit like a glove - some seem meant to be - some are akward. Its your creation - you have the liscense to make it do what you want to, and to whom you want to do it to....if that makes any sense to ya.....Haha! I like the direction you are going ....

I really dig the color choices, it does have an organized forgotten cluttered feel, like an attic or someone's thoughts. Interesting lines and movements like thought
