Playing

Learning to play again, using watercolor , pastel, and acrylic paint...., oh my!
I painted with my friend Carlolyn , she reintroduced me to acrylic paints. We played , droping paint in blobs spraying water moving it around , more blobs alcohol , crinkled plastic , palette knife . Medium .... This was the result . I had wanted a Chicago sky line for my chickens.... Not sure how this is going to work. Carolyn , " just look at it, let it speak to you, it will tell you what it needs" true enough. That's what all paintings do.
 Sandpaper , watercolor , pastel, taped off sections .
The beginning of my obsession with chickens.
