It's been a while since I finished a new batch of paintings. I've been spending quite a bit of time experimenting with different paints, mediums and materials. Lots of testing, not that many finished canvases. Turns out there's quite a lot to figure out when you use this much oil paint.

Eventually, I found a few things that worked really well and got back to making actual paintings. One turned into another, and before long I had quite a few new works.

Nothing radically different, just some new ways of working and a lot of fresh energy. Anyway, back to making a mess.
