Hey hey! 👋 Energy and calm at the same time is honestly the chase, holding both in one frame is the whole game. What pulled you toward geometric shapes as the structure for that?
I've spent way too much time lately looking at how color weight distributes across a canvas, so seeing "vibrant" and "calm" in the same sentence caught me. That balance is harder than it looks. The geometric frame probably helps keep things from getting too loose. Do you work wet-on-wet for the layering or let each stage dry down first?
