Happy Accident
While painting a mountain scene several weeks ago, I was trying to capture the stark difference between the lights and darks I was seeing. I could not seem to get that feeling from the colors that were on the canvas. Out of sheer frustration I scraped the whole painting and strangely liked what was left. I started building on that using a palette knife instead of a brush to push some of the paint around. I really liked the feeling I was getting from doing this and ended up with this moody mountain scene
