Ley Lines

Happy 2014! This is my first completed canvas of the year. I painted on several layers of different colored acrylic paint and covered it with plastic wrap. When it dried I removed the wrap, and the resulting pattern reminded me of ley lines. I cut out shapes to suggest standing stones. Several layers of glaze, some oil pastels as a resist, some inking, and drawing with charcoal and colored pencils resulted in this. I love working with resists, and do try the plastic wrap if you haven't.
