Last Piece of the Year

So here is the progress pictures of my last piece for painting III. I got really creative and had a lot of fun with this piece. I used actual mud and smacked a hand print on the painting. I got this crazy look from a lady when I was out side scraping mud up with my bare hands into a bucket. I felt like a little kid again. i also sewed black hemp into the fibers of the canvas. I think it added a nice visual effect. especially since I coulding paint a perfect black line that thin and that long to save my life. I think I would like to do more pieces like this one.
