TRUST (2016) by Michael Whelan, week 28 in his LEFTOVERS & PALETTE GREMLINS gallery project.

Acrylic - 12" x 16"

The masonite board I had been using became a painting which fits a theme begun with “Leap of Faith” and runs through “Winging it” and other paintings.

The bonus images start with a shot of the board on my drawing table before I started to transform it. I turned it upside down and decided to use the diagonal line as my starting point.

As it developed, I liked how it was turning out and decided to finish it to a level that would allow me to add it to the pieces that will be in my show at the Tree’s Place Gallery, opening August 13th.

Re-posting with an added image as Michael made some changes after the initial gallery post.
