Painting of the Week

This painting is called "Sensuelle." I mixed ground cloves in with the paint and it made a stucco like texture. Whenever the sun heats up the studio, it smells like spiced cookies.

Sounds yummy. I once had an art instructor who added clove oil to his oil paints to extend their drying time.
