Sometimes I just want to paint and see what happens. I get an idea on what to paint and I look to paint it in an abstract way using fluid paints. This is a moonlight sky with a full moon and the shadows and light bouncing off the trees. Hope you like this one.
Thank you for being here today. Welcome to all newbies and a big welcome back to those of you who already know me and my work. Great to have you here with me.
