Abstract painting

This semester I've been in a class called Methods and Materials of Painting. It's an abstract acrylic large scale painting class. This is my work so far:


Acrylics are new to me. They dry really fast, which is so different than oils. I like how fast it is because it is easy to layer paint. It makes it harder to mix and blend paints though. I've been experimenting with different ways of how to use the paint.

Abstraction is also something that I am not very familiar with. Most of my previous work has been more realistic looking. It is really hard for me to not think while painting and just do.
