Back at it with fire — this time in neon. 🔥⚡

I painted a fire piece not too long ago and something about it stayed with me. Neon felt like the next step — like turning the heat all the way up.

Still a WIP but already loving where this one is going. 🔆

Current WIP: a giant glowing question mark. ❓⚡

Sometimes you don't need a deep reason. Sometimes neon paint and a question mark is just... the move. I am having so much fun with this one.

More to come — stay curious! 🔆

Part six 146x114 - mixed on canvas #wip #studioview #processart #abstractexpression #contemporaryart #huguesamblard

This is a crucial stage where the final composition is starting to take shape and settle; just a few more touches to get everything moving in the right direction...

Part five 146x114 - mixed on canvas #wip #studioview #processart #abstractexpression #contemporaryart #huguesamblard

Nothing is certain; everything remains to be done – or at least, things can still turn out for the best.

Stage three 146x114 - mixed on canvas #wip #studioview #processart #abstractexpression #contemporaryart #huguesamblard

At this stage, it seems that something takes shape quite naturally in the act of painting; nothing is planned in advance, otherwise it ceases to be art. Trust your instincts.

From here on, anything is possible; even if a foundation seems to be in place, you’ll see later that everything can change. I must say I enjoy doing this sort of thing: developing a project that’s open to all possibilities.
