Every Last Brushstroke


 In the old days the paintings I did would pile up on a shelf, mostly unseen. Nowadays every brushstroke eventually appears on the internet via blogger, facebook and instagram. It has no doubt affected me, in a good way hopefully. If a scene has a good story to tell it makes for a better blog. In this painting I was mainly just cleaning the palette off, in fact I was gearing up for some night painting but felt exhausted and painted at home. The painting has a nice balance of pastels and browns with a bit of indigo and magenta throughout. The tentacle suggests some sort of underwater scene, maybe its the octopuses' garden?
