. . . just played around

This is another small painting, maybe 8 x 12, still using up leftover scraps of canvas. All these paintings are similar. I use the same techniques and materials, tools and texturing devices. I just try out different color schemes and use a limited pallette. Depending upon the size of the leftover piece of canvas, I make four small paintings of equal size. Two of them have a light background with dark texture, and the other two switch the colors around, with a dark background and light textures. They are so much fun to create. Messy is okay. Just playing, trying not to be too prissy in my painting. And I can use them as studies for the larger paintings that are percolating. . .
