You really need to enlarge this image (just click on it) to get into the lush colour and texture.
The beauty of experimentation is that it is just that. In the words of a certain Mr Gump, you just never know what you're gonna get. And because of this uncertainty, we're not too fussed about the end result. I touched on this last week with my finger painting, but it's worth mentioning again.
It's just play and it's very relaxing - just what was needed after the week I've had.
Collage, textures, paint, glue, ink, more collage, paint and glue. Fun. Perfect for Paint Party Friday.

I LOVE this- all those yummy colors and textures and the image you chose to put with it is perfect! I have to ask; is that the corrugated part of a piece of cardboard? I think I may have to play with this style- I"m finding it VERY inspiring!
ReplyDeleteOh and BTW, I doubt very seriously I'll have my "wings" piece finished for Sunday- I might just have to submit my reference photo :)
