I read that Paul Klee painted on newsprint during the war, when that was all there was.  Got me thinking about all the paper I have laying around, most of it going to the recycle bin.  I love the look of gouache on colored paper…so tried a few myself.  This is the third.  This one needed some oil paint to lighten up the background…her face is quite dramatic!
