Experimental

This is SO much more what I'm looking for. I was able to paint it the way I really wanted it to look. [Of course, this is often the case - I paint many photos to get a look that the photo does not have.]

 

What I'm looking for in this case is that elusive quality of Wabi...and Suki

 

Wabi - simplicity, quietude, rustic beauty

 

Sabi - the patina of age, the concept that use can make an object more beautiful or valuable

 

Suki - beauty in accidental or unconventional form
