Tri-County had Melanie Nolker in for a palette knife workshop - and it was super fun! With bold color choices, I struck out with my palette knife and abandoned my normal palette. She provided paints, orange primed canvas and a single knife from which to complete this painting. The underpainting is scraped on very lightly with colors to create an energy with the top layer of thick paint - so not what you want the top color to look like. Over the top of this, a thick layer is spread on as if icing a cake. Then, I punched up the colors, allowing the painting to have it's own bold voice! SO FUN and a little crazy! This is Day 19 of the 30 Day painting challenge and my 992nd painting in 992 days.
