Color Play

I was having fun with color and transparent acrylic washes. This is also pretty big in the original, so that was a challenge. When I work wet like that, the paint takes on a life of it's own. I find that some areas that seemed to be "wrong" when they were happening are now my favorite parts of the painting. 
It's good to give up control sometimes...

Wishing you a beautiful Tuesday! It's going to be sunny, hot and humid here...
