It was a lovely walk!
And, here's a canvas I painted today. It's got a background of paper napkin leaves, with a painted scenery and then some glaze on top, just like a cupcake or a flan.
UPDATE: I'm making changes to this painting because the tree in the background looks horrifyingly like a blackened cross, and that's definitely not what I was going for! I'm learning one probably should wait a day to look at a painting again before glazing. Thanks for your warm and supportive comments about the pictures on my previous post!
Next Up: Chris decides the painting is much improved by adding a smattering UFOs and, maybe, Bigfoot.

I love the napkin thing. Did you use new or used napkins. Were they dinner or sanitary?
I like this a lot, especially the contrast in textures and the way the tree is holding the swing like a lady with a purse. Birthday coming up in five months
If you're looking for additions to improve a painting, always consider a buxom naked lady. Once a picture contains a buxom naked lady, ideally reclining on a chaise, it crosses the line into Real Genuine Art. You know, like the museums buy.
I admit, Steve, that I never considered this kind of addition. But your point is well taken. Perhaps on the swing?
You live in a beautiful city! Love your springtime pics.
Your canvas is fabulous! I really liked the architecture and tree in your journal. What fun to see them combined here!
