My first impasto oil painting. Painted on a wood panel that is primed with PVA glue, water, and marble dust mix.
A side view to show the thickness of the paint. I got this dynamic and flowing effect by not using paint brushes for tools but mostly my fingers and self-made oil pastels which allowed me to quickly pick up the color I felt needed applying.

There are many steps to a finished piece of art. Layer after layer you build up the shadows, colors, and then lights. At each phase of the painting process, the work has a different character.
