Kaleidoscope Palette




This idea for a group exercise came from Susan Bronsak, of the Paint Doodles forum ( the original idea is from the book Art Escapes by Dory Kanter ). I have to say, it was the most fun I've ever had painting! No rules, no copying someone's demo, no pressure to be "up to par". The techniques used are dry brushing, washes, salt, masking, glazing, scraping, lifting and sponging. Talk about practice!

Paper is 140# Arches cold press, colors by W&N.

Thanks for looking!
