ABSTRACTED FLOWER ON GESSOED PAPER



I did this in class Tuesday morning while my students were drawing out their work to paint on gessoed paper.  Just playing with colors and it seemed to become flowers...

These are lovely effects Rhonda - I'm thinking gesso on watercolour paper that has lost its size (has happened to a batch of my old stocks) would be a good way to resurrect them, thanks for that (and happy 2015 to you!)

Don't you just love it when you have fun and paintings make themselves and turn out like this, you have shared some great new ideas to me, thanks Rhonda

Thanks, Sadami.

Kathy, I think putting gesso on your paper would bring it back to being useable again :) Happy 2015!

Lorraine, yes, it's great when just dropping color on paper and smushing it around creates something lovely and you think, "Did I do that?" ha ha
