Sea painting – techniques
I did a couple of quick paintings depicting the sea last week. I started by priming the canvases with gesso which I applied with a palette knife, then spattered more on top to create a textures surface to start painting on. Painting techniques included scraping paint across the canvas with a palette knife then flicking and splattering more paint on top.
collage from fragments of paintings
After cropping a few paintings, I collected the scraps and used them to make a miniature landscape collage.
