Lately, I have been making paintings that are about patterns and movement, and this was an idea I had to make the same pattern reappear on the people and in the background. I obviously love bright colors and I try to use them to emphasize people's interaction, while painting patterns to give them energy. Though this one is rather small (16" x 20"), I have been painting large ( 3' x 4'), and have really loved it; I think it is so much more fun and easier to capture movement on big canvases.
