The first piece of Essential Art is a practice piece, to see what the paint would do, intended to be a wood, but it doesn’t look like trees.    The green band at the bottom is where I put too much paint in the blob and had to wipe it back off.    The stuff below that is supposed to be reflections on a pond.

The palette has a lot less yellow than the workpiece, because the yellow blobs did not get mixed; the sunshine is straight out of the tube.

Here’s the workpiece on its own.    The brown and orange left of center are a stab at a tree.    The centered black is the darkness of the depths of the Wood.    The gray vertical in the sunshine is just a test.

This close-up of the left end shows some of the blue and white squishblobs looking like actual real cloud pictures!

Here, I was trying to put some sunshine even to the darkness of the depths, but instead it looks like flames.

This end of the workpiece is just a bunch of experiments.

Here’s the mixing palette,
