30 in 30 in 30 strokes number 6... This one I did the background first - one stroke with a house-painting brush. Nice to have the background in first- all the other paintings I ran out of strokes to put in a background. Liking the oranges with the gray greens. I'm using watered down acrylic on watercolor paper for all of these so far. Advantage- once dry, under layer of color stays put with subsequent strokes.
I love the gray greens, too. Makes the oranges pop. Actually I do a limited stroke exercise with my classes.....why don't I practice what I preach? Because it's hard, I guess. But yours are really nice. Good inspiration.
ReplyDeleteLaurie- I have a lot of rejects that won't be shown.😄
DeleteI'm finding it quite engaging... and not easy.
