Have I mentioned lately how much I'm enjoying working on canvas? I can manipulate the paint in any direction, lay it on thick, or dilute it by (literally) taking the shower head to it.
It withstands scrubbing, scraping, and all-round abuse. And if you don't like the way a painting is going, throw it in the shower with a scrubber (I like the little plastic surgical nail brushes) and start all over again. A wonderful platform for releasing one's artistic frustrations!
"Allegro" is a mixed media painting on 12x12 inch canvas, composed of watercolour, gouache, and a whole lot of movement (pushing and pulling the paint, dripping, and playing with light)
allegro |əˈlegrō| Music
"A direction to play lively and fast"
ORIGIN Italian, literally ‘lively, gay.’
