Hello Beautiful People! Welcome back! A while back I did a pour called Lapis Lazuli, and when watching the video the other day, I saw one corner that was so beautiful to me that I havent been able to get it out of my head. That corner was white with some amazing deep blue lacing and big boulder cells.. so tonight I am going to pour inspired by that corner haha..
this is Lapis Lazuli, if you want to go see the corner for yourself

in Any of My Paint.

I layer two cups and pour them into the center of the canvas, and then tilt it out.
Once the canvas is covered, then I focus on composition, and volume of paint on the canvas.
I personally enjoy stretching out and opening up details in my paintings, even if that means I lose some interesting parts. Most of the time, I prefer a more relaxing composition with some 'wow' parts to something very busy and chaotic.

Overall, I am very happy with this piece. I love the lines and colors and all the amazing cells..
My daughter sees a Horse in this painting, and I am getting a very 'under the sea' vibe from it. I do see the horse, as well as lots of fins.. so we have a water horse with a flowing mane and tail..
