Unlike yesterday’s painting, the title for Day 3 came to when I was almost done. I had been planning to do something for my Layers series in my usual greens and turquoise blue, but I ended up putting a bit of a twist in there. As the green layers were drying, I had the impression of water against land. When I added the two additional blue layers, the work “Tidal” just came to me and I thought it fit perfectly. I hesitated before adding the brown layer, but felt the piece needed an accent of some sort and I think it works.
