Gift to me - no self-judging today's work!

Good afternoon, Helga.

Today I am giving myself a 'gift' of unstructured time in my studio - most all day - where I promise not to judge what I am making and I make it on anything I want to. This morning I painted in my art journal (a 'safe' place for me to experiment) on top of two facing pages where I'd painted something awful, i.e., dark with India ink and green with watercolor. I decided to take what I've been learning in my play with the Procreate software and cover these paintings with layers and layers of acrylic fluids and paints and using a black grease pencil and scratches to mark the surface where it seemed 'needed' (but I wasn't judging!).  Here are the two pages presented in one version for the first one because it turned into a shirt.

Dressed for Success

The next one is very abstract and doesn't have a correct orientation. It helped that I turned my sketch book around and around (not constantly) as I laid down paint and thin layers of stuff. I decided to show the painting here in all four directions to see what you - and anyone else lurking out there - think about the image. Vote - if you want - for the orientation you like best using the number I inserted below each view. Don't hold back, Helga, because I see something (familiar?) you probably see, too. I'm not saying in which view.

Have a great weekend, Helga, and visitors.   -Eileen
