Day 120: Abstract Birds and Other Stuff in Acrylic on Canvas Paper
I started out tonight with lots of color on the background. Then I scrunched up Saran Wrap on top and let it dry a bit. After I peeled it off I turned it around and around until I started to see all sorts of birds, but not your typical birds. They were skewed imaginary birds. And no, I have not been drinking or smoking funny cigarettes.
Day 119: Bird and Floral in Acrylic on Canvas
It’s a little busy but I’m ok with it. I loved the circles from a couple days ago so I infused them into it. Also felt like doing a larger piece today. It’s 24″ H x 18″ W.
Day 118: Fish Joe Ray Style in Acrylic and Sharpie on Watercolor Paper
I love Joe Ray’s art. He often posts his journal pages with scribbles, sketches and words and it is so inspiring. If you have a moment check out his stuff. It’s very cool!!! http://www.joeray.com/
Day 2: Watercolor Abstract Flowers
After doing a little research I found a fun lesson for creating abstract flowers. I did not have any gesso so I improvised with titanium white acrylic paint. The size is 6″ x 9″. Here is the link for anyone interested in following the lesson. http://
Today is September 1, 2013. I have decided to embark on a great adventure and do some type of art each day for the next 365 days. I plan to take a step out of my goto medium of Acrylic painting on canvas and explore all sorts of other types. I will be posting them daily. I also plant to sell some of those on Etsy.
Day 1: Freeda in Watercolor and Sharpie on Watercolor Paper
Inspired by a new friend and her artistic quest, I am following in her foot steps and will be creating a new piece of art from start to finish every day for the next year. My goal is to explore new techniques and mediums, step outside my comfort zone and see in a way I haven’t before. Today’s piece is a mix of watercolor and sharpie on 8″ x 10″ watercolor paper. It’s inspired by a piece I saw online a few months ago. I am calling it “Freeda”, loosely based on Frida Kahlo and my husbands daily encouragement and support of my creative freedom. Thanks Lynn!
