551 Outnumbered

Today I spent the better part of the day experimenting with a new set of water soluble oil paints.  I loved the juiciness of the paint, but I had no idea what to do with it.  I have read other artists write that they "wiped off" and began again and now know what they mean, having done that FOUR times.  I still have three very pathetic attempts waiting to dry so I can try to learn from them and move on.

I love acrylics because they dry quickly and I can accomplish many layers.  With the oil paints, the "many layers" turned into a dirty mess. 

I will try again, but perhaps I should keep my day job.

418 Sour

Another painting with Jean Well's bowl.  I learn something new with each new painting, even though the cast of characters changes from painting to painting.
