Everyone is born with creativity. But those people who appear to be super creative have a secret. They know that creativity has to be developed and exercised to come easily. I am on a quest to immerse myself in creativity of all kinds. I hope you will join me!

Procrastination Art
Tonight, while I was procrastinating packing for my mission trip, I painted. This is a different style than I normally do, so it was experimentation for me. In the end, I like parts of it and see other parts that I wish I had done differently.
The canvas was basecoated blue. Then I added torn paper shapes.
The addition of some paint.
And then some detailing.
A little texture.
I wish there were more flowers, I think I could add some tomorrow. I wish I had put the pot lower on the canvas. It looks like it has been cut off at the top. And I am also wondering if I need to add more to it. I will take another look tomorrow and see what comes to me.
Hmm... you could add something on the table beside the vase to be 'the focus' and draw the eye down a bit so the cut off flowers aren't noticeable? Maybe a few petals or fallen flowers lying on the table as well...?

ReplyDeleteSkye, great ideas! Thanks.
ReplyDeleteCould use a bit of shadowing to ground the vase also. I really like the the flowers and the shimmer on the wall.
