I discovered the free workshops offered by Strathmore Papers this month and signed up to take Traci Bautista’s “doodle’s unleashed” class. It’s very fun, it’s FREE, and it’s pushing me beyond my boundaries. As an artist, I have to paint something, some tangible thing. With this class I’m experimenting with different ways of making marks, creating/using stencils, and trying to let it “flow”.
Here is how my painting evolved.
Step 1: spray painting with liquid watercolor, then adding a few details.
-adding some red
-using oil pastels
-adding more details
-the finished painting
I am pretty happy with the final results, it did evolve into a flower with leaves which inspired me to add the words “bloom, grow”.
Week 2 is coming up!
There is still time to sign up for this free class!
Wow! lovely page and good to see the process.
Big love
AJ
