Thinned Dripping Oil Painting


I am interested in letting the paint find its own way across the canvas. By manipulating the canvas and moving it around I am forcing the paint to travel in one direction but have no control to what actually the finished image will be.
    

In the image above heavy thick line sits next to watery thinned paint, I like the translucent next to the solid thick heavy line. This contrast in the weight of paint and therefore the difference in application is interesting to me, I definitely like to see contrast in the thickness of application. Perhaps I should now experiment with leaving part of the canvas bare.
