Media: oil on gessoboard
Size: 24x24 in
The Leslie Saeta workshop using palette knife was an inspiration.
We used a limited set of paints (funny enough, the same 5 I used to use
with Charlie Kello) and never touched a brush. This is the second piece
we did (first was the dinghys) so I felt a bit more adventuresome. I
really pushed the colors and temperatures. Enjoyed posting the progress
on Facebook and getting a running commentary from my friends. The last
thing we did was put in the background greens. I think that is the only
thing I'd do differently. Even though I chose a green that went with the
colors I'd used, I prefer to have at least the beginning of background on the
canvas while I'm painting the rest so that I can make sure all the colors work
together.The other part of working with a palette knife is the total loss
of inhibition regarding amount of paint on the canvas. I love working
with thick paint, want to translate that over to my brushwork as well!
