She Just Came Out of the Paint


This little fairy literally just popped out of the painting. I was experimenting again, and just painted away mixing greens and blues and golds. I left lots of water and paint overnight on the surface not knowing what was going to happen. This morning I started to sketch and wala, she just came out. Her face is so sweet,and once again, I wish you could see the shimmery golds and greens that shine ever just so softly. I have been painting on small sizes of watercolor paper sized at 4 x 5.5, so I don't have to invest a ton of time on it. That way, I can move on quickly to the next one.

Just Breath




This painting was an experiment with new sparkly paints that I recently bought. I wish you could see the shimmer this painting brings. I first experimented with the yellow and green sparkle paint with regular watercolors on a pre-stretched watercolor paper. I sprayed water and just mucked around, then I stamped into the paint with the letters to spell Breath, and waited for the paint to dry. I then studied the painting and found an angel it the paint. I sketched her right into the abstract paint. Shes so soft and loveable. Enjoy!
