This acrylic painting of a motionless pinwheel is done on a 14″x18″ canvas board, and I tried a slightly different and somewhat moodier and more austere style than has been my usual.
Creating titles for works of art can be sort of annoying sometimes, and I can see why artists number works in a series instead of naming them individually, especially if they’re abstract. But it can also be fun to create a title that adds to the painting itself – like instead of calling this “Pinwheel” I wanted to point out the obvious lack of motion as well as a hint of expectation of being about to spin… any minute now… *grin* So it became “Waiting for Wind”.
