The Last of My Glory Days
Half sheet Arches 140# cold press watercolor paper, using watercolor, graphite, Mary Beth Shaw's Wood Icing (that creates a raised texture) for the enso's all over it, and lots of spraying and letting the paint run.
Why the title? Well, I've got a birthday coming up later this month and this looks like the aftermath of a party/good time - and who's going to clean up all that mess? Not the birthday girl!
MISCHIEVOUS!! but you're right, birthday girl doesn't clean! hahaha
ReplyDeleteReally love this:)) Happy early B-day!
ReplyDeleteFunny title! But I feel sure you have many Glory Days in your future too!!
ReplyDeleteTeresa, I don't clean most of the time, I would never do it on my birthday! ha ha
ReplyDeleteThanks, Carrie. I have a few days yet but I feel this one sneaking up on me :)
MaryBeth, we all can't stay young, beautiful and full of life like you - the rest of us just get old! ha ha
happy early birthday, i hope you have a wonderful day. this is a great title and so fun!
ReplyDeleteAs they say, It's your party. I see the possibility of at least 2 and up to 4 paintings within this one.
ReplyDeleteI see exuberance ... maybe messy exuberance? ;-) I like the shapes and colors and how they move across the page. I had a birthday that I haven't recovered from yet: you're right, some are harder than others!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful colors!
ReplyDeleteNICE ! ... havea great b'day rhonda
ReplyDeleteThanks so much, Suzanne and Kevin (4 paintings? I guess that's good - they say an abstract should look good when placed in any direction but I did tend to paint it so the drips run down).
ReplyDeleteThanks, Sherry, Jane and Laura! Laura, 55 is going to be a hard one - so close to, gulp, 60!!
