A basketful of posies...

Waste Not - Want Not.  I like putting a layer of gesso over an existing painting and starting all over again.  I can't remember what piece I gessoed over - it really doesn't matter...just ready to try something new. The layers it creates add to the interest and history of the piece.

The underlayer of gesso created texture.  Background created with acrylic paint.  I dragged a notched credit card over the top of background while it was still wet to add even more texture.
