Day 15 in the studio: starting again after 3 weeks

I finally got back to the studio today after a three week break due to flu, a conference in Washington, DC, and teaching at Columbia College.

The first thing I did was to catch up on printing some pages of the 100 page accordion book I'm working on for the Lucerne Project:

Then I worked on a panel that I did on day 13:

What I'm doing is pouring a little bit of fluid acrylic over several layers of dried shapes, then dragging the pigment across the surface using a sawn-off window-cleaning squeegee.

This causes the ridges of previously dried stuff to be extruded (good word, what what?) through the thinner pigment:

When that's dry, I'll add something else to it.
