THE PROCESS:

I began this painting using a palette knife and a limited palette of 5 colours.  I am very much enjoying this painting, and look forward to how it'll look in the end (sometimes it's as much a surprise to me as it is to anyone else...things don't always go according to "plan"...and at times I find I get my best results when I paint from my "gutt" instead of my "head").



 Step #2











Step #3 - Canadian Field a work in progress
I have added more paint & the next step will be to scrape away to reveal the complexity underneath.








   Step #4 - Canadian Field a work in progress
Needed more paint...









Step #5 - Fine tuning...and it's complete!
