Paint

The painter John Barkely paints thick oil paint canvases and this is what his pallettes look like at his studio:

Since he has no use for them when they get so thick with paint, he gave them to me. Lucky me!  They had to be cut up to be transported.  They are very heavy. So much paint!

I love how thick and goopy the paint is.  Mmmmmm...look at all those layers:

I am not sure yet what I am going to do with these pallettes, but I think taking pictures of them was a start.  Right now, they are just airing out on the porch, waiting for something to happen to them.  For now, I will just enjoy all the beautiful colours!
