Demon Eye - New painting - My biggest yet!!!

This is my newest painting called demon eye, an exercise in abstract expressionism. It's also my largest painting thus far at a meter by a meter..

I am quite pleased with how it came out, I wanted to produce something more dark and moody than some of my other work, something inbued with more of an inner tension and I think I achieved this broadly.

the creative process that went into the painting was one of going with my first feeling or my gut feelings and seeing how it turned out. It was also painted in an almost action painting sense as I experimented with different ways of attacking the canvas as it were, and different methods of applying the paint. Sometimes with broad brushstrokes, othertimes with an almost stabbing
motion.


I like it though , its preety messy i'll admit but I think it looks good and works on the whole.
