Thick impasto laid on with a palette knife.This is much more about composition than subject but since I've been painting boats so much lately I have used them here as geometric shapes.

Very simple and understated, this one (like the preceding one) is much like a preliminary for a woodcut. There is something to be said for working flat like this. Letting the image be very two dimensional. Some would argue that since the  format of painting is two dimensional, then it follows that that  IS the language of painting and you should let it be so. I just like to work this way. I used to do a lot of woodcuts after the Japanese tradition. Though the Japanese woodcuts(or block prints) often had a lot going on in them, they still maintained a simplicity in line and composition and always celebrated the two dimensional limit.

I just don't feel like doing any more of the style I've been working on. The little daily cute things are  more realistic than I want and while it has been nice to explore realism,  this is the style I began my carer with.  I think I'll explore this a little more for now.
