New Abstract Floral Paintings by Megan Carty

I’ve been refining my abstract floral paintings to have more layers, depth, and abstraction. I’m focusing on larger sizes for them as well, which has been a lot more fun than I thought it would be. The process has forced me to slow down, be more deliberate and to think ahead. Rather than feeling arduous, this feels very therapeutic and cathartic on completion. I’ve been using darker background colors to add drama that makes it more fun. Going forward I plan to do a big collection of these and my other body of abstract expressionist works. Both subjects bring me so much joy and excitement! Which is your favorite of mine: Florals or abstracts?
