Art break - part 6, the ground

I did initially do the ground just grey, because I had to wait for some inspiration as to what to do with it.

When I was next walking outside, I noticed the algae on the ground... So the painting has an old stone wall, why not some algae?

Also pictured, my tiny feet.

So, with that in mind, I added some algae and rolling fog.

Can you see the added life when you compare this to the plain grey ground I had before?

The fog looks more prominent in real life, promise! 

What really helped with the fog part was using linseed oil to thin the paint.

Next, the background figures!

Also, if you have nice straight, thick hair, cut off five strands (at least 6cm long) and send them to me. I want to use it as a brush for ultra fine details.

(I also accept human teeth... for other art projects XP)
