Inspired to take out my water mixable oils after years in a box, I am taking a trip to crazy town tonight! I thinned down the wash layer with water, and brushed it on like one would use turpentine. I wiped off what I didn't want in there, and added minimal color with a soft brush. I forgot to oil the panel first, so the paint started drying to a tack very quickly. These paints are made by Holbein and will work with oil or water, and really are a different animal! I let them drip, but I'll need a little practice here, and went for a vintage photo feel. I know, pretty crazy, but every painting is a lesson, after all! Painting number 1670 in 1670 days.
