Collage Painting-WIP

Good morning! I woke up bright and early, eager to continue my background painting homework for Paulette Insall’s online class. I took another stab at the violet piece, then moved onto my gold canvas. Here it is:

and two more colors:

Now it is time to draw or paint my focal point images for each one. Hmmmm… will have to think about this awhile.

Take care, Carla

Lesson 2 Painting class

My hand are all covered in paint, I’ve made a huge mess, but 2 of the 4 canvases are completed for Lesson 2. Basically, if you compare the following painting with the post yesterday, you will see that I’ve added multiple layers:

Still more layers to do, plus I need to come up with a focal point image, drawing or collage element. So far, I highly recommend Paulette’s class!

Hugs, Carla

More paintings -early background work

Yesterday was a fun filled day… Joe and I saw the new Indiana Jones flick (loved it!), then went out for sushi (yummy!), then stopped by the art store for some supplies. Came home and worked on the start of 3 other canvases for my painting class homework.

Here they are, but keep in mind there will be many, many layers added to each one:

Today, I need to finish quilting my quilt for the fair. I might get in some more painting time, though.

Last, but certainly not least, today is Memorial Day. Thank you for all the veterans who gave their lives for freedom and democracy here in the US. Regards, Carla
