"Spoils of the Journey" is an abstract oil painting that transforms the remnants of a painter’s struggle into a compelling visual statement. Using the discarded elements—failed attempts, missteps, and discarded brushstrokes—the work re-imagines the so-called "waste" of the creative process into a powerful composition. Layered with vibrant swaths of color and textured strokes, the piece reflects the notion that artistic growth often arises from failure. The chaotic yet harmonious interplay of form and pigment celebrates the unexpected beauty found in imperfection and perseverance, illustrating how what was once deemed unworthy can be reconfigured into something new and exciting.
Original oil painting on board mounted in a choice of frames.
