MORE PAINTED PAPER

These papers are on the small size. With this first one I was trying a technique using the Tim Holtz blending tool. I think I need some lessons. LOL. They were to come out looking like sunflowers but all I got was two colored blobs. I could not waste anything, so I made my own flowers out of the blobs. Using Pitt Pens and a green jelly roll pen all I did was out line and do some detail. Turned ok for me. I really would like to learn how to use that blending tool.

These are some poppies I painted using water color crayon and Pitt Pens for the detail. I am not sure if I will use this as a small almost mini collage or add it to a larger collage.

Same with these flowers I drew them and used the water color crayons on then also. WEATHER IN MELBOURNE FL. : Yesterday we hit a record high of 96. I wonder what summer will bring if this is spring weather!

Not much in the way of art going on around here. I now have everything packed up ready to go.

I did these a few weeks ago so thought I would share them now.

That's all for now thanks for looking and come back soon

This week I worked on more hand painted paper and then making a few flowers out of the paper. I am working on making some "inches" out of a deck of old maid cards I found at WM

at Chirstmas time. They were on sale after for 50 cents. The are just a little bigger than an inch but I am calling them inches anyway.I will post some pic next time.

All for now off to the gym.

Thanks for looking
