This one was entirely palette knife play. I love the textures that resulted and am thinking a high gloss finish would highlight them well.
I'm enjoying my little cardboard painting experiment a lot. The fact that it's salvaged cardboard and the small size of the pieces make it very non-intimidating and easy for me to go to the table. Today was the first day I wasn't really happy with the results (pic to come tomorrow), but that's what it's all about... practice and play!
playing with a palette knife is my favorite way to paint -- i too love the texture -- you are inspiring me to grab some cardboard and go!
ReplyDeleteAmen! Practice and play...just getting to the table is success in of itself.
ReplyDeleteYay, Steph! What a great exercise in balance as well, since you headed back to work this week.
Michelle, I highly recommend it! Play! :)
ReplyDeleteJamie, you are very observant (big hug!). This little experiment helped me tremendously during my first week back at the office. There is method to my madness.
