Painting with a palette knife is such an experiment every single time... every smear of paint onto the canvas.
This Little White Church also challenged me to experiment in color. I loved the church in the reference photo, but it was set in a winter scene. I wanted an autumn setting, so I had to make colors and scenery up throughout the process.
Because I most often think on the left side of my brain, I'm never too comfortable at making things up. I think I'm pleased with the final result. I do keep looking back to make sure though.
This painting was my response to my weekly-ish challenge with my art mentor. The challenge was "Little White Church."
**Thanks to Sara Harley for letting me use her photo as a reference.

This one is fun, too! My favorite is the winter one, though!
