I experimented a bit with this painting. First the background was painted in with a transparent gold ochre along with the darker indigo color which was applied primarily with a little solvent as the medium. Then I crumbled a paper towel and began blotting it. Afterward, while the background was still wet I painted in the clouds with white which picked up the underlying colors. I like the result and will probably try this again at some point. I'm thinking about making the planet a brighter shade of red. What do you think? Any comments?
