Finishing, and Some Fun With The Palette Knife

After a two day break from painting, I got to work and finished two pieces:

The marshland painting finishes up the Contra Costa series, so that's one set I can check off my list.

I repainted the rabbit on the porch twice; am not 100% sure about it, so will wait a few days to decide. But otherwise, the painting's done.

 

Moving on; I played with the palette knife, trying to get the feel of it.Some angles are better than others, and it seems you have to collect the paint on the underside of the knife to apply it.

And last, I evened out the sky, but it did obscure the tree branches, so I'll have to plot them out again.
