Coming to you live from Linda's art studio, it's Linda's first step with the "start to finish" project!!! [Wild applause from the audience ensues]
In an earlier post, I promised to show you a project I was working on from start to finish. Well, I finally started, so I'm excited to share some pictures.
My first step in this case was to paint the canvas. I took two colors (Ceramcoat's "Drizzle Grey" and Americana's "Bahama Blue"), blopped (yes, that is the technical term) them on the canvas, and proceeded to swirl them together with my brush:
(Yep, the black and white paints in the this picture will be used, but in the next painting step.)
The paint in this next picture has been "blopped."
The next picture is in "mid-swirl" with my paint brush.
Wet paint...do not touch.
And here is the paint all dried:
I like how this turned out...the grey and blue mixed well to create a softer blue, but then you still see pops of the bright blue and grey as well. It has some good movement.
So, for now this will sit until the next step. I have an idea of what I want to do (it involves eye droppers), but I need to noodle a bit about how I want to make that happen.
That's all for today's program. I hope you will join me for the next installment of "Start to Finish"!
Happy everything!
