Day 15 – 30 Paintings In 30 Days

I just read that there are over 1000 artists taking part in Leslie’s challenge. That’s a whole lotta art goin’ on. We are half way through.

Today’s piece is a little bit collage, a little stamping, mostly mark making with paint. Back to the love theme, hoping to create a few more pieces this month for Brad’s upcoming book, “LOVE SAYINGS”.

Unfortunately the copper does not show in the scan. You can make out a few spots against the blue borders. It really adds some oomph in person.

Hope Monday is treating you well!

Eye Candy

This is a quick project for a friend. Art for her guest bath. She requested red, and there is more red than pink, just doesn’t look that way in these images. The pink is actually a mix of magenta and copper, and it is much deeper, and only slightly metallic.

I painted these with twigs and an embossing tool on four scraps of watercolor paper. Watercolor, acrylic, pen, and collage. When they were dry, I used a stencil for the heart shapes. The bits that look brown, are actually copper and I wish you could see the light they add. I cut out words from a magazine. Happy, home, love and family, sweethearts, playful.

The frames are a mock-up, close to what she has, I was just curious. These are 4 x 6. I think they are going to look very nice. Have a great night, and enjoy tomorrow!

Leslie shared with us a great way to make a collage. You can do it too! So easy, just visit http://www.picmonkey.com/. You can choose the layout, and how many photos to add, and then you can type a message, change colors and all of that. I tried to put my name on it, but It did not save. It’s late and I am ready for bed. That’s my story and I am sticking to it.
