Fire Tear
To start with a bright, bold colors end, you can wash with a lot of colors. Thin but covering the canvas. Pick a variety of colors to do the wash. Use a good amount of water. And you can let the colors mix lightly on the canvas, as wet colors will do.
Once you have finished covering the canvas with accidental brush strokes, let the layer of colors dry. Check it in the light to see if it is dry. Look for pictures or outlines of pictures. You can paint over it, even if you like it, because it could get better. Accidental brush strokes from layer two can cover anything. Decide if you want to achieve something famous or just what you like. Good paintings can be covered for better ones. If you are timid then keep the good ones. They are still a good painting.
After a wash of a lot of colors, and when your painting is dry, then get more paint on your brush and blot your brush first. These pictures are the images you might see in your final painting. The swipes can be long and thick to use up the paint on the brush. The swipes can be two or three times what the wash was.
Don't try hard, make it easy. Don't look at the whole canvas, just the part you are painting on. It is easy. Have some fun. Use arm motion.
Use different brushes. Keep your brushes in your water jar so they are handy. Different brushes give different line shapes or color patches looks. These can be essential to finding a picture.
When you have used all the paint from the palette for layer two, look for your focal point picture. You can see your picture and then go on with layer three of the painting without much fear of ruining it. Layer three is to highlight the picture. Layer three doesn't have to cover the whole canvas and should accentuate the picture from layer two. Layer two should cover most of the canvas, unless you have good pictures from layer one to keep.
Each painting is different and will all have
a different layer style.
