Getting Looser


I pick up a long panel that has a gessoed surface. I have the idea that I want to capture the windy sky that is blowing outside across the cane fields. The sky is dark and moody, yet the fields hold a tint of color. An occasional tree dots the horizon.
I use the gessoed surface to my advantage and the brush strokes stay fluid and loose. This is how I want them to be. Not too much literal information, but more the suggestions of what I see. The result is, "Portal."
