Accidental Abstract.

Did not check my settings and my first shot on a new day looked very similar to this.  Cannot remember what the previous project had been but there was something about this image that would not let me delete it.  Being new and still finding my way around I remembered to look to see if there was a secondary subject suggestion to Abstract Thursday Challenge  having missed this extra element on my first submission where I uploaded what looked like a B&W image ( it wasn't!) and the "extra" was -  your favourite colour(s).  As soon as I read "painterly"  I knew what image I would use with a little help  from  PSE filter Paint Daubs just to up the painterly effect.
