Purple Water Lilies - SOLD

Hi Everyone!
I created this 12x12 canvas for a breast cancer event that was held in October.  The wonderful thing is that I sold it before the event.
It was very exciting for me and the event!


 
The Crafter’s Workshop provided me with stencils and mediums to create this project.
The opinions I share are solely my own because I do love to use them.
 
Created on a 12x12 stretched canvas, acrylic paints, modeling paste, and The Crafter's Workshop stencils (Koi Pond, Wildflowers, Lotus Blossom, Messy Script Bit)

YUPO + BLACK GESSO = HAPPINESS

This piece of Yupo originally was another painting.
When I'm not happy with a painting, I put it to the side and eventually I finish it or BLACK gesso to the rescue.
 
TCW's Black Gesso is matte opaque so it's a perfect medium to use to start fresh.  Also, remember when you cover over a painting it gives you extra texture from the original painting which I love.


 
I used TCW's Mini Cactus and Live Laugh Love stencils.

JEALOUSY - A Painting on Yupo

Hi. I as in my art room this weekend and loving every minute. My back is finally starting to heal and I can play a lot longer.

Today I took a painting on Yupo that didn't work out and painted over it with black Gesso by The Crafter's Workshop. Slowly started adding paint with a brayer. Green seemed to be the dominant color and the word Jealousy came to me as the title.

 
You can see that I used the Daisy Chain stencil on the left hand side. Just the center of the stencil. I love using just a portion of a stencil in my art. Its very rare I use the whole stencil.
