This was a classroom demo. We did small quick paintings for about 2 months. It's a valuable exercise to improve drawing, quick decision making, composition, and confident brush work. This following quote is apropos for a post about Alla Prima painting, which is Italian for "at the first."
“...she took her hand and raised her brush. For a moment, it stayed trembling in a painful but exciting ecstasy in the air. Where to begin?--that was the question, at what point to make the first mark? One line placed on the canvas committed her to innumerable risks, to frequent and irrevocable decisions--- Still the risk must run; the mark made.” ― Virginia Woolf, from To the Lighthouse
