One Black
One White
and
One Black and White
First, I paint a thin layer of Gesso, straight from the bottle, onto my canvas boards.
One black - 8 x 10 canvas board
One white - 16 x 20 canvas board
One black and white - 16 x 20 canvas panel board (This mixture of gesso was spread with quick, spontaneous strokes around the canvas with a painting spatula).
It is my intention to use the black and white one as the start of a really cool abstract that I have in my head and in my sketch book . . . . . . only time will tell. Now to just wait for them to cure - which Liquidtex recommends 24 hours.
I prepared these on my kitchen counter because my painting table was such a mess! Love that! I first layed down a canvas painting drop cloth - I would hate to destroy my kitchen counters! I have not yet made a decision if i will paint the sides of the canvas boards - that is why they look unfinished at this point in time.
