Eruption

A scarlet vein of fury breaks the skin,
Where molten thoughts and fractures begin.
The surface strains beneath its weight,
In silence loud, the forms gestate.

The painting falls within the abstract expressionist genre, harnessing gestural forms to evoke the raw energy of an eruption. The mixed media on paper technique features textured layering with palette knives or credit cards, generating organic cracks and tonal contrasts. Metallic and earthy pigments enhance the illusion of depth and seismic motion. The work belongs to the Credit Card Collection, emphasizing immediacy and spontaneity in mark-making.
