I used a lighter touch to edit "Rowan Corner". Just added shadows with black oil pastels to the railings and tree trunk at front. Then lighter black lines tracing some branches. A few extra red pops on the berries. ##AmPainting #Trees ๐ ๐ณ ๐

This morning I was editing paintings. After last week's transparent washes, I used opaque paint to bring up deeper tones. Also oil pastels for final detailing, like extra pop of orange-red on marigolds. I rather like the frilly purple-reds of Lollo Rossi lettuce at front. ๐ฅฌ ๐จ ๐ #AmPainting
Today we were exploring relaxed painting in Art Class, using technique of Wet on Wet with acrylics. First splashes of water, then dabbing colour into it. Both "Autumn Border" & "Rowan Corner" are awaiting further contrasts & added definition. ๐ผ ๐ ๐จ ๐ณ ๐ #AmPainting #Trees #AutumnColour
Finished my painting of Begonias in Art Class today. Aiming for contrasts of muted vs vibrant colours and geometric vs organic shapes. I do like that these rows of pots and tins look like decorative panels containing the flowers at the centre. ๐จ ๐ ๐บ #AmPainting
Rarely say this, but pleased with this piece, it is giving me smoking packet warning vibes though.

What is the purpose of #art? Pablo Picasso had a pretty good answer. Do you cleanse your #soul regularly by #creating or enjoying #artwork? #ampainting #amdrawing #amwriting #amplayingmusic #amdancing #amacting

Have you experienced this effect when youโre making #art? Thereโs a #spiritual element to #artwork that is hard to define. But itโs a powerful force. #amdrawing #ampainting
