You can't beat happy accidents and these work really well. I like this.

Just love the colours - all my favourites. Beautiful painting.

Very lovely, colourful painting. Inspires joy

I used a slightly different technique for this mini landscape. I washed some very thin turpsy oil over the panel to use as my ground and let the wash run and mingle to see what effect I would get. I quite liked the drips on the dried under wash and wanted to see how I could use them in a finished painting. Using a palette knife I started to lay in the paint for the top two thirds of the painting. Apart from adding touches of the colours I used in the rest of the painting, I left the background of the bottom third untouched to take advantage of those drips.
