What Will it Be?


Yesterday I grabbed two acrylic yellows and one fluorescent red and using an old brush splashed colors onto a dry half sheet, 15x22 watercolor paper, then let dry.  I had in mind to do sunflowers loosely so let's see if that will happen or what will transpire.  Next into the wet paint I stretched long pieces of cheesecloth and two coffee filters, the brown cheap kind.  I'll add other colors to those such as Midnight Blue, Prussian, and Ultramarine along with permanent rose.
