Very spontaneous and great color.

Alla Prima is such a mystery for me - too many years of gradual glazing. Even my pencils are layered methodically. Sometimes I imagine myself doing an alla prima. I have to laugh because it is so opposite my nature. I envision a wild eyed, hysterically laughing me splashing paint rapid and free. I admire that you can do it. I bet you can do it without looking wild eyed - eh. LOL
