I played with more Prussian blue and Sap green today. Words for the day – fun, and experimentation. I don’t think I would count either one of these a finished painting.  Not as successful as I hoped. But there are some interesting pieces, if I crop the images.

First, the two pieces I worked on today.

I cropped the painting above to a square, and I think it is more interesting. I put paint on, and took some off, and then added more. I think I just overworked it.

And for the trees above, two croppings. I really like the slender version. I named these “trees” but I can’t help but think of the Northern Lights. Reflecting off a lake, or a layer of fresh snow.
