A Long One — steve dayton

Here is a long painting consisting of four 10 x 10 cradled wood panels bolted together after each panel was painted. I used six quarter inch bolts with nuts to attach each panel together. This project started out as a more realistic landscape or seascape but I didn’t like the way it was going so I started over and ended up with this abstract piece. I even changed the first abstract idea to this one midstream.
