Just finished this guy, another 48x48 oil on panel. 

I've been peeking in on Tyler Green's Modern Art Notes at http://www.artsjournal.com/man/     - if you're so inclined take a look, there are some good interviews and thoughts on painting. 

I finished this one a few weeks ago and have been letting it sit - just looking at it to see if I'm really done.  I think so (but I've said that before!).  This one is a 48"x 48" oil on panel. Haven't given it a varnish yet, will have to wait a few months to let it thoroughly dry.  

I'm still struggling with the whole "field painting" thing and whether I need other elements to move this from work that has been seen before.  Although interested in order/chaos, I'm wondering if an element that "says" structure is necessary or if the viewer completes the idea by looking for the patterns that are inherently there.  By structure I mean some form of ordering, or grid or some such element.  I'm back and forth on that one so I guess I'll do them both, depending on the piece.  Also the color is truer in the detail, I am not a photoshop guru.
