This piece represents a beginning for me. It is a Richard Schmid painting technique I learned from a Salisbury artist, James Taylor (no, not the singer). I've been looking for a way to work that is similar to how I work in pastels and I think I found it. Though this piece is on canvas, Schmid's technique is great for painting on board. I'm presently building it up from an underpainting of Transparent Red Oxide. Progress shown below.
