This started out as a diagram of the last painting I did, then I started adding some connective lines about the circles. The really bizarre thing is how the placement of the circles happened in the painting... I had intended for it to be spaced differently but something else happened. And now here I am trying to break down my accident to get to the bottom of it. Pressing on...
Another in the continued series. This one is 8x10. I had done a wash on the canvas in a light orange color, and had started working on the background, fully intending to work in blues for the circles, but the orange tones grew on me and ended up working little bit better for this one. Coming outward, each circle is twice the diameter of the previous and was placed on the tangent sides of the first and third previous circles. Following that rule, I found that the centers of any adjacent pair of circles aligns with the center of the second consecutive circle following the larger circle of the pair.I think.
