"Definitely Three Olives!" -Sold

I love Fridays! I did a little experiment with this painting. I put down a gold acrylic paint base.
I have a friend that has been using gold gesso... yes, gold gesso! Anyway, she let me have some and I've prepared a  canvas, but the image I want to do, I didn't have access to when I was painting today. In came the experiment, the gold acrylic I used is like an iridescent paint, so I thought it may be similar to the gold gesso. Well, I guess I won't know until I actually paint on the gold gesso. I'll let you know one of these days soon.

I do love Fridays, it's "Fun Friday", I had forgotten about that, but while listening to a Jackson Browne and he was singing about love or heart or something and I thought...    yes, you guessed it, "from the heart".  Well, my heart remembered that I had three olives in my martini on New Year's Eve!! Why yes, I remember!!
