Tuesday 27th May 2008 - Palette Knife Experiment

I went to a couple of art talks on Monday and came away really inspired to push myself a little harder with the painting. In the middle of the night I woke up and found myself wanting to try to paint in the style of my good friend Michelle Chrisman, whose work is very different from mine. She starts with a bright undercoat and then uses a palette knife to apply the paint in thick squishy bright colours - what I call lickable paint.



It was really fun to paint in a completely different way and i felt that I learned something from going out on a limb like this.

Gorge - 12 x 12" - oil on canvas - make me an offer if you're interested!
