5-Day Painting Challenge: Day 2

"Don't worry about your skills or techniques or how much you know about art - just get into making something."

~ Dean Nimmer, Art From Intuition

Following through with my promise of public accountability, here are my results from Day 2:

orange splash - work in progress (but almost done!), 8x8 on wood panel

I started with a black background and played with reds, magentas and a bright Cadmium Orange. You can't see it much on the picture, but I love how the grain of the wood shows through. And wood is so much fun to scratch up! I foresee maybe one more orange scribble to finish it off.

Next up, Day 3...
