Everything but the kitchen sink. Well, almost. Collage, acrylic, oil pastel, palette knife, finger paint, pattern. had fun making a mess. Then making something out of it.
Posting this late, but thought you might enjoy. Stages of a sunset.

I considered adding a touch of indigo to this. Instead I drew tiny turquoise circles. Acrylic, Caran d’Ache, texture sheet, collage, some finger painting. Used a palette knife for the first layers. Random marks.
Feeling like this might be a work in progress. The collage shape is nudging at me. I may add more Flesh tone to balance or conceal. Loving the pinkish, peachy flesh color, “Natural Buff”. But it does not scan as well as it looks in person. It is warm, and not too feminine. Or maybe it is. What do you think?
Day two is through?

Day one is done. And so is my Liberate Your Art postcard swap envelope. Two birds, one stone. Layers on layers here. At the end, I took a nail file and sanded off some of the top soil.
Ready for day two!
