Happy Accidents

The other day I was going through some old watercolor paintings, which had been torn up to use for collage. They were spread out allover my table, and I accidentally placed my clear rose quartz heart, which I had in my jacket pocket on top of these random images.

When I came back from lunch to resume my project, I noticed how the crystal heart distorted the images underneath, so I quickly grabbed my camera and began to play and create different images with the crystal heart. Later I downloaded the reference photos, and here is the first image I painted from this happy little accident.
