She Had Excellent Bad Ideas

She Had Excellent Bad Ideas
Acrylic & Oil on paper
14 × 17 inches

This painting feels like confidence arriving five minutes late and somehow improving the whole situation.

Soft pink covers the surface like blush, dusk light, or a room that has already heard some gossip. Through it, bright orange arcs, creamy white gestures, deep navy marks, and hints of peach and yellow cut across the composition like plans, detours, and dramatic entrances.

Dark vertical strokes gather through the center like figures, buildings, or thoughts trying to stay serious while everything around them insists on fun. In the lower corner, a bright orange form rises like a little stage, a mountain, or a warning sign no one plans to follow.

The brushwork is energetic and layered. Some marks are thick and glossy, while others are scratched, dragged, or quickly sketched into wet paint, giving the whole piece a sense of movement and playful tension.

It has the energy of charm paired with questionable judgment. The kind of brightness that says yes first and thinks later.

Painted on mixed media paper, which means the surface may have slight waviness, soft edges, or small quirks from the process. Those are part of the piece and part of how it was made.
