Little abstracts

Painting by Vicky Christensen, mixed media on 9 x 12 inch canvas panel 

I hate to waste paint so I usually off-load paint left on my palette to some surface that can be used in another painting. Lately I've been using 9 x 12 inch canvas panels. This painting was done on a panel that had a lot of texture and several layers of leftover paint. It looks a little like fish to me, but change the orientation and it could be something completely different. 

The bottom photo is the current state of my latest 9 x 12 panel. I like the colors and some of the shapes. What will it become? Your guess is as good as mine. 

Work in progress
