Petal Patterns - Abstract Acrylic Painting by me

This is a painting I created titled Petal Patterns.

I used acrylic paint for this and a wood canvas.  The size of the painting is 22 x 31 inches (56 x 79cm).  I like to make my own wood canvases for my paintings because I prefer a firm surface to paint on.  Also because I have started experimenting with adding objects on top of the canvas so the actual surface I am painting on is not flat.  This was the first painting where I glued pieces of wood onto the canvas as you see in the image below.

When I first started this painting I was going for a more patchy looking pattern but as I moved forward I did not like the way it looked.  So I created a more colorful uniform pattern but with a thin layer of paint so you can still see the patches underneath.  Here is a video of me creating this painting.

I am using this as an entry for the #creativecomp hosted by @sammosk here
