I've been painting...

an 8"x10" mixed media landscape on canvas (Flowers In the Mist):

Going for a dewy-moist, quiet ambiance...

I was into all kinds of acrylic and watercolor paints with pastels and charcoal. I always start with brushes but invariably I use my fingers - in this instance to work the color into the fiber paste texture. Okay, and the flowers, too, and the sky...thank goodness I have a scrubbie thing that removes all that "media" from my hands :-)
