As they say, "It's only paint."

So it's Friday afternoon. Class is in a couple of hours. I was going to leave the red and blue abstracts that I did in class last week, and see what instruction Shilo gives us tonight. But, as usual, I couldn't help myself, even though I was nervous I'd go too far and mess it up. Oh, well, it's only paint.

So here are the red (autumn) and blue (rowing in Santa Cruz) with more layers.

Abstract Expressionist?

I'm working in acrylics for the Friday night Abstract class, but I really want to work in oils, so I tried to use the "layering" idea and started an oil.

Here's the first stab at it. I'm sure it will look very different as it progresses.
