"Plums On The Run"



I thought it would be fun to try a sort of monochromatic painting of plums. The first was a wipe out as usual. I like this one though. I'm getting used to the wipe out process actually. Last night I tried to paint some empty glass bottles and I wiped my panel three times! I just couldn't make it happen. I tried again this evening and got a bit closer. Hopefully I'll have some bottles worth posting soon. Meanwhile, the learning continues.
