Abstract Horses - WIP

The canvas was flipped over.  More white, yellow ochre and a mix of the brown with both colors added, then wiped away in places after spritzing with water or waiting until the paint almost dried.  I now see a large white shape on the left and a smaller horse head touching that, to the right of mid-center.  I'll do negative painting behind those shapes that will become horses, then add line here and there for definition, using a subtractive approach with this work in progress.
