"The thesis is that beauty, and in particular the visible beauty of form and grace and the audible beauty of rhythm and melody, especially if any of these be found in nature, dispose men towards right conduct, and...towards true thinking" (E. F. Carritt, 1914).

work in progress layer1
It's coming out looking very much like a jellyfish, which I must avoid being too representational. It must have been due to the marine like shapes I was enjoying in the last work. I would like to see just how simple I can push this in subsequent layers. Underlayers of acrylic and 3D paint, glass bead gel, moss. Keep whiping off the raised details as white is painted on. Added 1 layer of dark glaze. I like how this adds dimension to the raised tenebrous areas, but may be wasted effort as white goes on. Try making the white layers more trasparent by increasing the ratio of medium and linseed to pigment.
