Hi, its
Paint Party Friday, yaaaaaay and this week am showing you two
works in progress. There is no rush to finish them as want to think a bit more yet. Anyways my book arrived by
Flora Bowley called
Brave Intuitive Painting....
let go..be bold..unfold.....the backgrounds were a blast to do, have never slapped on the paint before............then just see what happens...........sounds exciting.......and it is. The canvases used are previous works in progress which I didn't like, so waste not want not and start afresh.

(18'' x 16 '') |
|
(12'' x 10'') |
Both very different but this made it very exciting for me. Both
Works in Progress are painted in Acrylics. When your painting mojo is low this book certainly makes you want to get your paints out.
Am scheduling this post as need to get to town in the morning to buy some packaging.....yep somebody actually wanted to buy one of my previous canvases after seeing it on Facebook, plus a couple of my pendants, can you believe it.....woo hoo...so the cash will be handy for some more acrylics and canvases.
Thanking you for popping in and will catch up with you all later. Have a great weekend and take care of yourselves, hugs Annette xx

Hi Netty! What a fantastic project to work on, I can't wait to see how they look finished, I really love the first one beautiful colours and so much energy! :0) Congratulations on your sales that is fantastic!!!
I see that you mentioned you are on facebook? Do you have an art facebook page?
You're one more person who just convinced me to finally get that book - I haven been playing with the thought for quite a while.
I love both you works, especially the one on top - I just love the colors and the cirles with the birds, the litte tree in the corner - beautiful.
Congrats on the sale!
Wow I love these especially the turquoise one!! Can't wait to see it finished!! Excellent work, thanks for sharing!!
Hugs Giggles
Awesome Netty. I like the black and turquoise together. Very graphic.
Have fun.
Wow - Netty - Amazing!! Really excellent. Keep going with this it really suits you. Happy PPF
Congrats on the sales! These are pretty interesting. I see a dark cave with water flowing into it or from it in the first one, and I want to see where it leads.
Keep painting your way- that's what counts- your paintings are bursting with life!

Don't know why...but I could only see the second picture. I think something needs tweaking with my new laptop. Anyway...the second painting is totally awesome. Love that background. So happy for you that you sold some of your artwork! And...I love your header.
They both look wonderful. I love the color they look like they would have been fun to paint..
Hugs~
Wow, I'm missing words, two fantastic creation. I especially love the first one, wonderful colors.
STUNNING artwork Netty. You really have a fabulous eye for colour. Congratulations on selling your art work sure to be loved. Have a great weekend. Hugs, Gez
Loving the top one. Really loving it.
Aaaah yess! isn't it fun!? I love Flora! Looking forward to where your paintings take you! Wonderful work!
I love these works!! the birds on a wire are great and that tree makes me happy. Happy PPF!
Luv the blues.....and all the colors in your 2nd canvas....just don't cut off your ear gf!
I haven't ordered her book, but I've been painting much the same way--slap the paint on, see what comes out! At first I was having trouble seeing anything in the paint, (I have much the same trouble with clouds, alas), but eventually I did start to see shapes and curves I could use!
It is very very fun, you're right.
Ahh, just slapping the paint on does sound freeing - and fun! I especially lie the background on the first one.
Looks like Flora's techniques agree with you. Congrats on making those sales! Let's hear it for new art supplies!
love them both... getting the book!
cheers, dana
love them both... getting the book!
cheers, dana
Wow! amazing colours love them both
Both quite striking! For some reason both remind me of art quilts. But then that is something I have a love of, so maybe I see possiblities for them in others art. Happy for your sales! How exciting! HPPF.
bold and brave is definitely what you do Annette, wish I could be so bold with my colouring, love the creation
hugs and best wishes
beautiful paintings! I really adore the flowers done by dots.
Netty that first one is incredible!!! I LOVE it. You are so talented. xxxxxx
