Excellent colour choices here, it's a great dynamic mix that works well with the free flowing looseness of your lines. I realize that this is an abstract piece but I am very strongly reminded of a woman's torso in this work, the tension and twists seem to me a back view of a graceful dancer stretching up and across the plane.
I love the effect of the somewhat glossy strokes of the highlights, they work with the scraping drag marks and add a pulse to the piece, along with a great sense of depth and balance.
Beautiful work. Big love for the mix of textures and contrasts of smooth arcs and straight edges. :)

Looks like a girl in a corset and brickwork behind, it has a sleek yet medieval vibe; the colours are strong and vibrant, very solid.

I love this one - the curves and the monochromatic treatment :-)

Interesting that this reminded ~nonparticipant of a woman's legs and ~not-sleeping of a woman's back. I agree it has a feeling of an abstracted female form. Very beautiful.
