This was my first abstract work of art created during my Bachelor of Fine Arts at Concordia University. I fought with the concept of what is abstraction? I also didn’t know when it was finished. A question was posed to my drawing teacher as he stood by watching me paint. “When do I stop?” I asked. His response was, “Now”.
