I would say that this painting may not be my usual style or doesn't have my usual color palette. But then I realize that I've done so many crazy-different styles and used so many different mediums through the on-line classes I've signed up for this year, that I don't know what my style even is any more.
2007-2021 - I worked in realistic oil painting pretty much exclusively (although I did do an occasional acrylic).
2022 - I began trying to figure out how to paint with the palette knife.
2023 - I've done a little of everything: watercolor, acrylic inks, pen & ink, collage, fabric applique, and so many things with mixed media. I've grown in appreciation for each.
I have to say, though... I think smearing paint with a palette knife is my favorite. I love the process. I love the end result. I want to keep looking at it. I want to run my fingers across its surface (once it finally dries). I want to do another.
My Weekly-ish Challenge was "Just Put Them in a Vase."
Thanks to Wendy of Pieceful Thoughts for letting me use her image as a reference.
