I've been painting side by side with my friends, Karlyn Holman and Tammy Kennen for the past couple of days. Karlyn paints much more loosely than I do, and so I decided to do a "loosey goosey" painting. I asked if anyone had a brayer so I could so some fun linework. No one did, so I got inventive and decided to use the side of a toilet paper roll! The marks that it made were so fun. I think I will teach a class with this technique! (The picture is below) Look closely at the painting above and you will see the linework that was in the first layer. I painted mostly in the "wet in wet "technique. Fun to do!
Necessity is the mother of invention - and scarcity breeds creativity, doesn’t it! Fun painting!
ReplyDeleteThanks Ruth. You are so right about necessity being the mother of invention.
