Wild Horse

This painting is one of three I did for Tom Fong's class in which we were to try experimental approaches to painting. In this one I painted the background wet into wet then created texture by applying a roll of toilet tissue. I let it partially dry, and then pressed on to it a piece of plexiglass on which I had loosely painted the shape of a horse. I then used a two-inch brush to define the edges and features of the horse.
