This is bright yellow acrylic neon splashed over an acrylic primer and allowed to drift.

Things moved fast. I was aiming for an impressionistic style and again used my fingers to make most of the marks, leaving the lines to the brushes. The colours now are titanium white, indianthrene blue, naples yellow, spinel black, burnt sienna, and the tiniest touch of cad red.

I’m slightly stunned by how this is turning out. There’s a classical look to it that’s completely unintentional and probably has to do with the muted colours, although the bright under-painting is contributing here and there. I don’t think it’s quite done yet; but I do think it’s teetering dangerously on the fulcrum of finished and messed up, so I’m holding off doing anything else to it until at least tomorrow. I probably need to mute the blue across the top of the bridge; it relates to nothing, and it’s only slightly out of place, so again, tomorrow.

No, of course I didn’t wait!

24th March. The clouds at the back look, to me, like landscape, but I think I’ll go with the ambiguity.
