Paint by numbers, stay in the lines, sign your name. Art is so full of... rules! And yet we tend to only follow our own. In this painting I was continuing the efforts to use up all the paint from my winter palette, now working on the large blobs of black (PBk6) and blue (PB15 red shade). I was pleasantly surprised with how the black lines worked out, the paint was more lively than expected, and the little blue dash marks complement the design.

With just some green umber (PBr7), yellows (PY43, PY175), and the blue and black left, it was time to lay it on thick. In this multi-layered- multi-texture extravaganza the design definitely went pear-shaped, whatever that means.
