More Art Journal pages...or, using up the two colors of blue paint left on the palette...attempting to fill the space with interesting brushstrokes and shapes with no prior planning as to the composition...I always seem to fall back on the female faces...ever since I was a teenager I've done these...
I am not sure these pages are finished yet...I think that it needs some other papers of similar color collaged onto it...enjoyed just slapping the paint on there and creating the suggestion of faces with just a few brushstrokes.
And would you call this blue, periwinkle, purple...or even "purplewinkle?"
I love the faces that you draw. The brush strokes are lovely. These would be fun pages to color copy and cut and re-purpose on other pages.
ReplyDeleteThanks for swinging by my blog and all of the kind words. I'm happy to hear you are inspired to be creative!
Definitely purplewinkle! (Although if I were to be serious for a moment - ha! - I'd probably call it blueberry.)
ReplyDeleteI love the idea of using up the paint on the palette this way. I'm struggling with a lot of creative "blockage" right now, and I think using up the bits of color is a great way to play!
Thanks for sharing!
