FH414 Simple Gifts VII (lady among trees)

FH414 Simple Gifts VII (lady among trees)
10 x 8" oil on panel

This experiment is a coloured version of the Black on White sketch, BonW11.  I wanted to try white outlining as a way to expand the line techniques for a projected large work. The white drawing in oil certainly adds another dimension, and perhaps satisfied my occasional need to scribble on every bit of the panel.

10 x 8" oil on panel

An experiment in brush drawing. I am trying to emulate the feel of the Black on White sketchbook drawings, very freehand and full of lines and patterns.
