"Crazy Heart" by Li Mahalik

Mixed Media with paper, Acrylic, 

20"x16"

I lost count revising this painting. 

When working on an abstract like this, there's essentially only the esthetic that counts. 

Everything in the process to get there is a play of vision and a sense of vulnerability;  

the birth of many possibilities to choose from, accompanied by so much to lose with every stroke. 

But I think like life, it will all work out 

If you don't quit.
