I finished that painting from the sneak peak the other day. I really love how it came out. This is painting 3 in the series so far. While I was working on the background I wasn’t sure if it would be as I imagined it, but I set it down for a little bit, walked away, and when I came back and saw it with fresh eyes I was in love.
This canvas painting series is kind of based on this old series of silk screen pieces of mine that never went anywhere. As in, I loved them, but no one else apparently did. Wah, wah, wah, I know tiniest violin. Anyway, I had the idea of the watercolored background on this silk screened print in mind when doing the top painting. It really didn’t end up looking anything like that, BUT I realized it looked a lot like the “pattern” I made recently.
It’s now available in my Etsy shop, and I’m on to a new canvas and a new painting in this series. I’m still having so much fun with the series and wish I could be cranking ’em out quicker, but the rest of my life calls.
I didn’t do a Found Art Tuesday piece today. Tuesday snuck up on me too quickly, but perhaps I will do one later this week.
