This painting is a variation of "Not Everything is Black & White" -an abstract representation of the theory that not everything in life is black and white. This painting can be hung in any direction. Using acrylic paints for the black, white and grey stripes. I also used metallic pearlescent acrylic paints for the middle horizontal section - I spread them on with a palette knife, known to some as a trowel. I painted this one when fellow artist Rob Kirbyson bought my other one recently. I liked it so thought I'd repeat the design. Nearly.
