"hessian and watercolour"
texture swatch
another texture swatch ,which a friend suggested to try , this time with hessian using an old potatoe sack... you can still see the fibres on the painting .
....here I wet the paper in some areas leaving it dry in other areas to see the diferences when I laid down the painted hessian ... as the hessian absorbs so much water and pigment I decided to pour the remaining pigment on top of the hessian on the lhs when the paper was flat ..the result is a bit of a mess but it's interesting how it dried .
.... although the weave is much larger and coarser than gauze the resulting patterns / imprint are similiar to the gauze above
...thanks again Jean for your suggestion.

It's great to stretch oneself by experimenting. I like the effects you achieved. It could make a very interesting abstract background. A nice blue too. Is it a W&N?
