process post - abstract expressionist work

I've definitely gone through a bit of a struggle with this piece, and have progressed through the "finding it-losing it-finding it" pipeline to the point that I have, unfortunately, lost it. I really enjoyed it up until I started adding white, but I think I added too much and need to reevaluate how to create a figure-ground relationship more clearly. I don't really have time to work on this before the end of the year, but luckily the acrylic medium here makes it much easier to go back later and make changes, which I'd love to do at some point!
