Egg Tempera with a pallette knife


At the risk of heresy among egg tempera painters I’ve attempted this piece “Ready to Go” using solely a palette knife. To attempt this I was once told would be like painting with melted butter. Not so. I used a dispersion pigment mixed with egg yoke but keeping the consistency thicker than I would typically do when painting with brushes. Let me know what you think of this.
