Beginnings

I've been looking at Giorgio Morandi for the way he used the same vessels in many images whilst still keeping each painting fresh, Lyonel Feinenger - for structure and movement, Henri Matisse mostly his cut outs - exciting edges/shapes and Paul Klee I love the way he manipulates watercolour and his colour harmonies.

Pattern, design and lots of fluid paint. How much fun can one person have? There's a lot more painting to be done but I thought I'd show you the underpainting in watercolour using green gold, transparent turquoise and a touch of indanthrene blue.
