The technique used on this painting is one I have labeled “take away”. The first step in this process is to apply several colors on the canvas and then cover it with black paint. I then “take away” the excessive paint with a putty knife. The outcome of this painting gave me surprising results. It instantly reminded me of the muted colors used in the 1963 children’s book “Where the Wild Things Are” illustrations.
