Painting with a palette knife is not something I do very often and I’d forgotten what a pleasure it can be. The painting below was started by just smearing some paint left over from my palette onto a piece of masonite. Then I kept smearing until something grew out of it. I’m always pleased when a picture emerges from my imagination. I’ve spent so much time in the woods painting and also just sitting and staring that woodsy landscapes must be stored in my brain.
