Blooming Canvases In the Studio this Sneak Peek Friday

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Wow another crazy week in the studio...and I've got canvases blooming all over the place to prove it here at the Love Shack to share with you for sneak peek friday.  Currently I am enrolled in TWO art courses: first there is Flora's Bloom True: the e-course and second is Donna's Canvas Create monthly video series.  I had the bright idea that...while I was working on one project and....ahem...patiently waiting for it to dry...then I could just pull out the next project and move right along ;}  I am  driven by the limited space that I have here and that while I have my paints out, then it only behooves me to work on multiple projects.  Lord knows that I hate to even think about trying to pull out and work on my photo albums while I'm trying to paint...not a good idea at all!

So I've got my new easel all set up {a Christmas gift from my son and DIL ;} and I've pulled out all of my paints and supplies and I've begun the first step of just getting some paint onto my canvases.

First my favorite warm colors...pink, yellow and orange...they look like sherbet...yummy!  Followed by a layer of cool colors...turquoise, purple and bright green.

Trying to be paitient with the class process and not be over critical of my canvases...even though I'm having serious thoughts of "okay...now what?"

Add some more warm colors and turn that frown upside down ;}  On both canvases...

 

So now that I've got out my favorite colors once again...I can go ahead and use them on this month's Canvas Create project...this makes me very happy indeed!

But I've squirted out a way more paint then I can possible use on my 12-inch square canvas..."so what's a girl to do?"  Other than start ANOTHER canvas for my Blooming True class...I just hate to waste paint...lol

Then again I have always appreciated the number three and I believe that a triptych always looks lovely hanging up together.  Just don't ask me...where?  I simply cannot think about that today (said in the voice of Scarlet ;) after all, tomorrow is another day!

Hope you all have a wonderful weekend.

Fondly, Roberta

What a beautiful and free outpouring of creativity this was! Did your fingers act as a brush some? I thought I could see the evidence...{smiles} And I really like that heart wrapped text on your desk - I too hate to "waste" paint! It works so much better on some sort of background instead of just drying on whatever palette I have used!

Blessings!

This looks like so much fun!!! I would love to paint on a large surface like that, but I lack the room or the courage! I'll stick to my jewelry for now, but who knows what the future might hold! ;)
