This was just a little palette cleanser I made on the back of another painting using a new Holbein watercolour brush I bought a few weeks ago. When the brush is new it has a pointy top and I can paint really precisely, then after awhile it wears out and becomes somewhat rounded. These abstract paintings are about nothing, so I called the painting nothing precisely, as in, I painted nothing very precisely. I brought this brush out on location a few times but didn't use it much, I tend to paint a bit more crudely on location due to time and also to better capture the moment. If I stand too long on location the painting can be overworked, although some scenes require more time than others. The weather will continue to be cool and gloomy, I will try to make some decent paintings this weekend.
