Spill Thrill

With spring and summer just around the next snowy corner, I got a new palette ready to go, as seen below. In this abstract painting I was using some of the old paint and making good progress when I spilled the water cup. Embracing the embarrassing mistake, I took the painting to the sink and ran it under the faucet for good measure. The effect was to create blurry edges here and there, and it smoothed out the textures. Not that I would run all my painting under the water but for this one its seemed to work out.
