This was the first time I've used a painting pad. It allowed me to work quickly and loosely without using a canvas. The upside is the surface is nice and smooth. The downside is it's not as well gessoed as a canvas--especially since i usually coat a new canvas with a thin layer of white acrylic paint. This painting was inspired by one I saw online. I'm thinking of doing a series of loosely rendered fruits and vegetables. Suggestions welcome. I also think doing one before starting a painting session will loosen me up.
