Abstract "Mindless Spiral"

After my last painting,"Autumn Bliss", I needed to change things up!

After I swirled the colors together I was not sure where to go next with this painting. I just kept adding deeper reds, oranges, and continued playing with different colors.

Finished! What I love about this painting is that it can be placed on the wall in any direction!
