Not feeling like I have any control over the subject matter, composition or colors, but I’ll show you how I tamed this wild beast from some dots and crosshatches to at least something… Negative painting (painting the background instead of the foreground) seemed to go well. It’s how you edit the mess and I’m finding it’s the key to creating the composition. I will take what I learned and move forward.
