I think I am finding my own style of painting (at least one of them). I primed the canvas and made texture and drip spots on it then painted over it in glazes making watercolor-like layers and I also used sand medium on this one for the starfish. I made a pattern with painters tape and smeared it on and then painted it after it dried. I like the end result. I like this textured but soft style too. Maybe it will look good on my underwater pieces when I get around to doing them.
