Wing

When my dearest darling girlfriend saw the wing in the bottom left of icarus she requested a painting of just the wing on a black background. now i'm not a big fan of using black in general and i only had a little bit in any case so the background ended up being a most pleasing layering of lots of colour to create what first seems black but is, i can assure you not. i really like this painting and unlike icarus which i've been working on since january, it only took three or four afternoons to complete. throwing paint in the sunshine again. wonderful
