I am challenging myself to work on my art every day and create a minimum of 2 finished pieces each week. My intention is to explore ideas and techniques and push myself beyond my comfort zone. I will be working in a series with several different images. My interests at this time are drawing, line, texture and color. I will be posting exercises and challenges for myself and any others who wish to join in the Creativity Journey.

BACK TO WORK!
I am still putting things away after my return from LaCrosse. The studio is finally looking like I can work out there again. After a little editing, I will show another slide show from the workshop. In the meantime, I came across some drawings I had done on tissue paper and a sheet of watercolor paper that ad a layer of colorful collage covering a failed painting. I decided to collage the drawings on top of the paper leaving a nice colorful border around each one. I managed to get three of the six images completed. It felt good to paint again. I hope to complete the painting tomorrow.

ReplyDeleteLove the drawings and the color!
ReplyDeleteLove your blog and work. Looking forward to another slide show.
ReplyDeleteI like how textural these are. This is such a creative way to paint/it is nice to see artists experiment w/ things other than the standard watercolor paper or canvas. Beautiful!
ReplyDeleteThese are absolutely beautiful! These are watercolor over tissue that was collaged onto water color paper? I love your work!
