Painting

I felt very tired much of the weekend, evidently got a slight bug (again). But yesterday morning I got my act together and did a bit of painting, and had a go at a Lena Gemzøe style landscape, applying paint to very wet paper with a plastic card. It's a bit overworked, but all in all I am pretty satisfied with the attempt and it was fun and low stress, and interesting to see it evolve a long way away from what I originally thought I was going for.

Yesterday's effort, c 25x20cm:

Those are lovely! I know very little about art, but the first one strikes me as Japanese in style, maybe because of the colours and shapes and balance of it? But they're both gorgeous pieces of work.
