This is one of those " in the spirit of "posts. This month is for experimentation... ideas concepts,,, styles so even if it doesn't come off as I envisioned... posting and moving on.

Hi Carol, The first thing I thought about was gloved hands when I saw this posting. Or perhaps a girl's hand in a knitted mitten. Sometimes you can express quite a bit in a simple painting. Interesting idea.
Hey There Carol. I am enjoying your paintings for this challenge. To me, this hand has a 'spiritual' type vibe to it mixed with a little 'be green', save the planet type of thing. Boy, you are much better than I am...when one of my ideas don't work the way I imagine them....goodness....I tear them up! My husband wants me to keep painting on WOOD. :) Have fun with Day #8.
Thank you so much for your comment. I usually discard work that is not working ...but for this challenge which is for exploration and experimentation I am posting... its the learning.... now I am looking at it with a different view....
