Monocolor Paintings

Here is a new series I've been working on for the past week or so. It started by accident (as so often happens) when a painting I was working on (Vestige, below) refused to make sense of itself & through a series of drastic changes became the red figure on a white ground as it now appears. I can't even remember what the original image exactly was, but it went through several (3 or 4) changes before simplifying itself into the iconic image it now is. I decided to try and continue on this path which had opened up for me...and I'm continuing to do so. I don't know how long or how far this will go.
