Working on Some Palms....

I've had a canvas sitting around collecting dust for awhile....
I'd done a very ambitious background which I happened to love...
Neglected to take a picture of...
Lots of blues on the teal side, green, yellow...
Anyhow, I got inspired...
And here's the progress thus far...

I have to say barely any of the original background is still visible.....
Lots of acrylic layers encouraged to drip thanks to a spray bottle and a desk chair for an easel...

My new favorite color is "Pyrrole Red Light"....(don't ask me how to pronounce it)...
Just know I'm a big corally orangey reddish fan...

Completely different theme for me...
and have to say I'm enjoying it!

Joining Paint Party Friday and you should Too:)

HappY HolidaYs To ALL!!!

Stay

I've been painting.....

I started the background with a newspaper my husband brought back from China awhile ago.  Even though I have not a clue what it says, I love the look of the written language.  I chose not to do alot of imagery layering rather lots of acrylic glaze with my paint for the transparent effect.....

A special symbol and message....paints, mediums, inks and charcoal...

have carried me to this point for now....

Yesterday's afternoon....

Listened to Bocelli and the rain
