Another palette knife painting consisting of small strokes to the wild long strokes. Can you see the crackle finish in the vase? I would appreciate your thoughts.
This painting was a lot of fun to compose. It is a combination of mixed media and collage. First I covered my canvas with modeling paste for texture. Next, I painted with green and gold tones. I then made a copy of a bird I had previously painted and attached it. Paint was applied over the bird to brighten it up. Raffia and faux reeds were the last items added. I have never done anything like this before and I am sure I will do it again. Do you like it?
Number 18 was a lot of fun to paint. I guess my favorite cow is the Holstein. I really like their black and white spots and how they vary on each cow.
