Workshop Patterns II

Still experimenting with oils and cold wax.... love the process... each layer  I discover different aspects sometimes a completely new painting emerges from the original concept.  Lots of surprises along the way.
The palette used is brighter than what I usually use. Again I used some cut stencils but opened them up.
I find these painting have been greatly influenced by my trip to Morocco.

Still working in oils and cold wax.  Experimented with cutout patterns in this one to pull it together. Still feel a bit lost in this media but the more I paint I guess the more I will learn.

Format  40 x 40 cm gray cardboard without gesso.

Workshop New Mish Mash

Continuing to cover some old paintings with oils & cold wax.  I have been working on several paintings simultaneously, find this a great way to rest from one to the other and come back with a fresh eye.
