It was supposed to be a simple example of negative painting that I could later demonstrate in one of my classes but I was really enjoying the colours and process that I couldn't stop and lost count of the many layers so it left being an easy study and became a finished painting.
Wow, Lorraine, this is a favorite! I love all the layers, just beautiful.
ReplyDeleteThis looks fun. I love working with glazes and layering. Your students will love it. Really beautiful with so much movement and depth.
ReplyDeleteI always get lost in trying to do negative painting like this - you've made the subjects pop forward so well, it's like an explosion from the depths of the paper to us!
ReplyDeleteLove this. love the depth and the effect with such a limited palette.
