Slowly starting to take shape. Mainly working with leftover paint and a palette knife. First time I have worked like this, but I must admit that I’ll probably start adding fresh paint eventually and do more brushwork. I do love to experiment <3

Happy 162nd Vilhelm Hammershøi, born May 15, 1864. "Interior with a Woman Standing" uses soft layers of grey and quiet light, with the figure turned away in a calm and still room.

A woman in a dark dress stands with her back to the viewer in a doorway, seen through an enfilade of grey rooms. Cool diffused light fills the space around her. Vilhelm Hammershøi, 'Interior with a Woman Standing', oil on canvas.

Continued working on my Fontainebleau landscape. Finished the second layer with Raw Sienna and started the first layer of the sky (though ideally, the sky should be done in one)

Specifically, getting those nice, but not too uniform dobs/dabs for the effects of both depth of foliage cover in a painting, and of course delineation and definition of individual trees and branch foliage.
These are dirt cheap, rough as stencil brushs...👇

Scored some free jade plants, awesome!! Only thing I've been able to grow reliably is another crsssula ive got. And scored some dirt cheap stencil brushes, never used them. But I'm hoping to solve an issue with dabbing coverage . All very technical and painty you know. 🤨
