Oil on a 6x6 canvas panel.
Working within the square format was something different for me.
This is my contribution to this week's WDE at Wet Canvas. The hostess, Kay, provided great photos to work from.
For the thick strokes, I loosely mixed paint (not over mixed) on the palette. Then I would pick it up on my palette knife. Then pick paint up from the knife with a scoop of the brush. And lastly, apply it in one stroke. This seemed to give some nice unexpected blends and broken color.
