Allium Seedheads
Watercolor on paper, 4x6 |
Another experiment in watercolor for today. This has been such a crazy busy day - not even time to breathe on this one! Once again, I have used the drawing gum with a plastic brush handle to "paint" on the places I wanted to remain white. I washed over this dry gum with color, looking more at the shapes and the values of the background garden. I like the loose, crazy flow of this watercolor, how one hue melds into another, creating their own shapes and flower heads in the distance. I can hardly wait for my supplies to come in - I will have so much fun getting these paintings out of my head and onto the paper! I am headed out to meet with high school friends for a little celebrating - so I have to make this short! This painting makes 529 in 529 days - and tomorrow is going to be a full painting day beginning in Independence and ending in Lee's Summit :)
