The mood in today's post seems livelier, maybe because of the warmer palette. Although the process takes a lot of planning and work, it's so worth it when all those miskit areas are removed to reveal the luminous colors. A scrubber brush helped soften some edges in this painting, too, but no paint on a brush ever met with the paper. Both paintings are from the archives.

Both this and yesterday's paintings are superb! They just glow.
This one is great, soft colors! Fun technique that opens up for another way of painting!
Good work Sandy!

Great painting! It feels like spring is back in town :)
Both pieces are superb...I have tried this technique but only once...my patience and heaviness of hand were not very good painting partners...I appreciate every pour made here...I am in awe!
Thanks for the comments. Applying the miskit is really one of the big the keys to making this work well. That and guessing just how much darker to make each pour... It's really worht the struggle, I think. Have a great week, ya all.
