I get that I'm old, now. I remember commuting to San Francisco by car, and not encountering traffic if I got there by 7:15 am. So you would think that I have everything figured out- ha! This painting started out as a so-so acrylic monotype on printmaking paper, turned upside down, and painted on with white gesso, Inktense pencils, transparent and opaque watercolors, pencil marks, marking pens.
