The geometric and the gestural


From April 2018 to November of 2019 I was working on this painting in my Northside studio. It was a reaction to the rigid geometric paintings I've been creating with flat fields of color.

What if I follow the geometric forms with more gestural strokes?

Also on this piece, I cut the top of the composition to follow the skyline... Not sure if this would ultimately compliment the looser style?

Another critique I received was this composition might be too complicated for this gestural style.
