Firsts today. I thought I'd do a series with palette knife, but decided to combine with a brush. What I'm really working on is color studies and brushwork. I loved the process in my last workshop with Michael Stiernagle; block in very roughly with thin transparent paints then go back with the heavier brush work. I'd like to get down to the minimum number of brush strokes for each shape as an exercise.
This little piece is called "Almost Guacamole, " since I'm missing the jalapenos and mushing! I got these amazing, huge avocados at Costco's yesterday; couldn't resist painting it!
