Finger Painting in Watercolor-tell me what you think!
Hi,I've worked on my daffodils a little and then experimented with finger painting. It was fun. Tell me what you think. I just put my fingers in warm water then touched the paint and placed them on the hot press closed my eyes and tried to feel the paper and paint and just ta da.. this one I like, what do you think.. now tell the truth please... I would like to frame it and call it dance.. because it looks like three dancers to me.. try this.. and tell me how it comes out. have a great weekend. I've still got this blasted headache -- 13 weeks on Monday. I can't stand it much longer.. take care,Diana ps the candy kept me going today. My son's coming I needed to get his room ready= move paintings...
Diana the first thing I thought of when I looked at the second piece was .. Three people swirling , honestly !!! We think alike but I bet others see it too. go ahead name it !!
ReplyDeleteBj. and whats with the head ... Still?
Love your daffodils Diana! And glad that you had a few minutes to play, I see three young girls line dancing, you know one of those they play at weddings and I can never remember the steps......Please feel better soon, Im so sorry you are still not feeling well.
ReplyDeleteLove the daffodils. And your finger painting is wonderful--so fluid and free: looks like the 3 muses to me. I'm sorry your headaches are still going on! Does anything bring relief--hot compresses?
ReplyDeleteHello,Diana.I love your watercolor balance between control and fluency.
ReplyDeleteI sometimes like to paint with my fingers or the palm of my hand, dragging the color!
Thanks BJ, Yes the headache is better but still not right. I see it's getting better the last time I had a spinal headache it lasted 14 weeks. Next Mon. is the day. I hope it's over then.!! Thanks Laura, it was fun to finger paint! I should do it more often. pain pills help. and yes heat does too. Thanks Rita. I'm going to look at yours! please stop back by. thank you all for telling me how you felt about the finger painting! love,Diana
