It ends up quite shiny. No medium used except a touch of turps to get it going If it got sticky on the palette after some hours . I’m not as experienced a painter as you and find it an accessible paint.

Fruits of our labour,
Seeds of servitude,

Ease from the viscosity of paint,

Turps trickles like lines of time,

The fruits of our labour,
Growing from inside,

I formally submit my entry for the quickest landscape sketch ever. Scrapbook page with bits of tape stuck to it, stick of beech charcoal, two oil colours and some dirty turps. Two minutes flat. I’m heading for the sketch olympics next year. Part two tomorrow.

Punnets
full of turps

Saucers full
Of secret hues

Brushing paint
Usurps

Debilitating
Blues

Clearing out
The ash

And dark
And deadly thoughts

Existential
Crash

For art
Allows all sorts

On the easel this evening... Another lockdown topic; Sunday evening Zoom Call with Champagne... I'll have come back to this later as we need to clear the table for our tea now, and the dining room smells of turps.
