Mixed Media Art: Starting with a Black Background

In this video, I begin with a variety of black backgrounds, a limited palette, and a loose approach. I worked quickly trying to enjoy the process and striving to not get hung up on the outcome. I discovered that starting with black creates immediate drama making any painting more interesting. Give it a try and see for yourself.
