New 12"X 12" crazy lace agate poured painting 1

(Note:  This is still drying. The colors will change, deepening and intensifying.)

October 17th, 3ftx4ft purple painting revisions

Here are images of the painting as a whole, taken in slightly different light. 

The glare/shininess will be greatly reduced during the varnishing stage by applying a satin varnish. This will also unify the sheen of the whole piece. Also, what might look like gray or black in this lighting is actually a dark, muted purple.

Here are images of each of the corners. 

Note that none are white. Each has a light glaze of color. You can see this best in the image where the white edge of the painting shows.

The following are close-up views. 

Notes on technique:

• I used a bit of texture so that the yellow area on the right hand canvas wouldn't look like a flat shape. 
• I echoed that texture in a small part of the left hand canvas. 
• I blended lighter and medium-value yellows (lighter and darker versions of the same yellow) to give some variety and to make a nice soft transition into adjoining shapes and colors:

I used the same basic composition on a different canvas, focusing on eggplant colors and a gradient on the right:

Painting Revision-Oct. 2nd

I kept the drip subtle and limited to the lower left portion of the canvas.
