Pushing the envelope... but not there yet!

Over the last couple of days, I tried a monochromatic beach scene in loose style with dirty colors in my continuous saga to go for more of a contemporary look. However, this painting doesn't seem to have the same punch as some of my previous works featuring more vibrant colors or higher contrasts. Nevertheless, this could be the start of something new (this canvas is unstretched for now)...


I find it difficult to get off the beaten path, abandoning the security of what worked for me in the past. I need to muster enough intestinal fortitude to go for growth... and for me, growth seems to be the migration path to a looser style!
