White on Brown: Sellwood Park Sketches

My favorite fast sketches from the recent Sellwood Park expedition. Experiments in white tempera paint on brown paper.



I feel like I was a little hit and miss about getting a good balance of light and dark in this technique of white paint on brown paper. The ones that were fun but a little more erratic in the balance are over at katura-art.com, if you'd like to see more.

    1. Thanks, Mark! It sure works well for the bright and sunny months of summer--will have to bring this setup to Cathedral Park for the next sketchcrawl!
