Day 26: Drawing and Iridescence

I spent a lot of time drawing randomly on a couple of heavily textured panels, using airbrush paint and a fine brush. When I'd filled up the space, I took an electric sander to them to roughen them up and tone them down a bit. I started drawing in pencil on one of them, and finally I coated them both with a semi-transparent layer of pearl iridescent colour:

Not sure about whether the smaller panels work with so much going on in them:

I always think that the only way you know when to stop is after you've gone too far.

Talking about painting, of course.
