2 weeks to go!! :0

The past couple days I really focused on getting my smaller scab painting finished. I have put I think 6 layers on it since the last time I showed a pic of it.
1. I made it dark blue all over (looked terrible)
2. put impasto mixed with white on parts of it
3. then a light multicolour wash
4. then a solid layer with orange, yellow, and brown.
5. Then a orange light wash
6. Next was a layer of clear impasto gel, which I textured by pressing with hand and fingers.
7. Then I splashed some red on randomly and dark brown in top corner to run down the side. I left tis part matte. I also used a knife to cut into the painting and peel away some layers in a couple small places.
8. After that I put some darker layers on the scab using matte paint to contrast with the shiny, textured skin. Plus I put some shiny red mixed with impasto in a streak across it. Here are some pics taken with my phone.
I will do another post showing other things I've been working on later.
