I chose to work in a time-sensitive way—in one sitting, without moving back from the work, finishing the painting while it is still wet. I develop a semblance of pictorial elements with quick, overlapping layers of paint, and am interested in how formal decisions can affect the mood of a painting, or how it is perceived. How do variables like overlapping (therefore obscuring) forms, deliberate color palette choices, or altering the edges of the imagery (another kind of overlapping) affect the perception of the imagery?
