I named him crimson moon

So finally this most excellent cadmium red and magnesium dry painting has a title that is more discerning than the arbitrary numbers it originally had.

The colours are SO awesome and I am completely happy with the way this one is.

It is a painting.

So beautiful.

If you look closely at the cadmium red, you can see the speckled black drool within the glaze that makes a web shaped pattern. (I have to remember to put up a detail)

And the dry glaze is just that > it's not powdery or too dry, or runny, it is perfectly dry. In different thicknesses it becomes darker purples or mauve. This was an early success story and it was in my graduation exhibition.
