Briefly, it was a midsized canvas with a black background; branching up from a common point at the bottom, on one side came red branches and on the other side blue, mingling together towards the middle of the painting much like arteries and veins. From the top center of the canvas was a thick stripe of bare/unpainted canvas going down maybe 1/3. At the base of this, I mounted a paint brush to look as though it was swiping down, wiping away the paint. I used a bit of stiff wire hidden in the bristles, puncturing the canvas and attached to the wood frame behind.

I don't remember the precise theme of the assignment or why I made what I did, but I do remember one interpretation I offered as "unmaking". Perhaps of spirit, or of body. It was fairly dark, but I had a lot of fun doing it.

What a pity it's disappeared. I hope you'll continue to dabble. Everyone should make some art now and again, I think.
