Simple Starts

Thinking these must be starts. Incomplete abstracts. I have a few ideas of what I might do next. We will see if those ideas are still alive tomorrow, or if they are replaced with new ones. Used a palette knife to spread the paint. Getting more practice in.

I meant to add texture while the paint was still wet. As you can see I completely spaced it.

I signed up for a free workshop with Laly Mille. Follow the link for more information. I am looking forward to it. I am sure it will help keep my momentum going.

I had fun with this, and I like the softer palette. I am starting to like the painting. But I am having a hard time convincing myself that it is good.

Ever have that problem? Hands in the air.

Thought so!

I love the soft texture on the table. Botched the shadow though. Goofed again using white flowers. HELLO! Goofed on the nearly fluorescent green. (I do like it in the splatter.) Seriously thinking of doing the flowers over. I’ll see how I feel about it tomorrow.
