Something was bothering me about this painting for a long time. It is called 'Courage' and I found the section around the Chinese symbol upsetting to me. I finally decided to give it a good look and try a few options. Blue and a calmer area called out to me. I have a tendency to forget about leaving some quiet spaces in my paintings. I am very happy with this one now - courage does need a calm attitude and the blue space does seem to be resonating outward amidst the chaos.
