Now that my workshops are finished for the time being, I can get back into the studio and start playing again! First thing on my list is to experiment with impasto painting.
Impasto is a technique used in painting, where paint is laid on an area of the surface thickly, usually thick enough that the brush or painting-knife strokes are visible. Paint can also be mixed right on the canvas. When dry, impasto provides texture; the paint appears to be coming out of the canvas.
So here are a couple of progress videos showing my foray into impasto, such joy!
