Day 126 Purple Rain

I've been working on this one since Prince died. It's big, it's purple, it's probably cliche. But I wanted to paint it. I've been reading about the meaning of the lyrics (still don't know which version may be true) and watched the movie. I keep adding layers and it's still not quite there yet. This is one of those paintings that I don't have a specific intention for ... but I'm waiting for the painting to reveal itself soon. More layers. My favorite Prince song is Raspberry Beret so maybe the next painting will be a companion piece in a nice magenta.
