Hi, I totally forgot to post this on my blog, it was created for
Unruly Paper Arts a few weeks ago.
Ingredients: A flower, Distress Inks, Blueberries and Gesso, plus a couple of stamps from Lost Coast Design and Kelly Panacci.
|
Using a Flower, dab it into the distress inks and dab at random on your cardstock |
|
As you can see many different colour distress inks were used |
For the Lady stamp I crushed up some
Blueberries with a little
Gesso, then painted her hat and dress with it. Rather pleased with the texture it produced. Sharon asked how I came up with this idea and to tell you the truth haven't a clue. All I know is, Art is a great adventure and if you don't try you will never know.
PAINT PARTY FRIDAY
|
18 inches x 17 inches |
For
Paint Party Friday am showing a Work in Progress.
'The Encampment' is in its
very basic first stage and have loads and loads yet to do on it. Acrylics and humid weather are not a great mix so this could take some time...............lol
Thank you for popping in and giving me your support. Wishing you a lovely weekend whatever you are doing. Take care, hugs Annette xx

beautiful painting, lovely background, and your WIP is taking shape!
how could you forget to post such a lovely piece! I love the background to this and it turned out beautifully so it's no wonder you're pleased with it. Encampment is looking good - it makes me think of some sort of fairy tale town - is that the inspiration?
Awesome! I love stamping with objects you wouldn't ordinarily use. Never thought of using a flower! You are so very creative Nettie. Have a great weekend. xo
Love how you used the flower. so creative.
Your Blueberry Lady is fantastic ans I'll be squishing some blueberries today ...just for fun.I love painting with unusual items :0)

And
Your tents are dramatic, a great original idea!

Hi Annette! I love your new art and your flower stamping technique! Have a happy weekend!
You are absolutely right! "Art is a great adventure..." I am going to write that down where I will see it every day!
Delicious colors and textures, gorgeous shapes, I like your compositions.
Wonderful job on the Lady. I would imagine in the past ages people used all sorts of things to make pretty things. How fun you found flowers and blueberries to work. They certainly can stain a good garment permanently. lol . Look forward to the Encampment to be finished..
The encampment looks like it is going to be a lot of fun. I love how it is starting out. Keep us up on the progress. Happy PPF
Love your blueberry lady, so inventive and creative! Encampment looks very intriguing, looking forward seeing it's progress!
