Aztec
by markhooley67
This painting reminds me of the Aztec culture and I like to work with shapes. I like the subtle colours in this painting.

Sun and Moon
by markhooley67
This picture was inspired by the eye of Rah. I like to play about with clay and liked the look of this
This picture represents the moon, again made with clay

Textural Desires
by markhooley67
This was inspired by the 80’s game Tetris but seemed a bit flat with just acrylic, so I added various coloured materials to make it stand out more and look more 3D
The one below I did first with Autumn colours as I like to call them. All the browns remind me of the leaves.

Darkness Creeps In
by markhooley67
I painted this because this is how life feels sometimes. Life is all bright and sunny then suddenly the dark things seem to creep up all around you and start to work their way through your soul.
