Month 2 using Brian Eno’s famous Oblique Strategy cards as a basis to paint a picture
This time it was ‘use different mechanisms’.
For this months effort I took the easy way out and changed to using acrylic paint which is soooooo much easier to use than pastel or oil. Acrylic gives a lot more instant satisfaction as you can just paint over your mistakes within a short time of making them!
My favourite story of all time is a Christmas Carol for many different reasons. The painting is an alternative Jacob Marley in which instead of chains to symbolise his evils on earth, I have his sins spilling out of his head! I really enjoyed using the luminous orange paint I found and to be honest the painting was an excuse to use that.
