Here is my most recent piece. I created this today while visiting my sister. Sis & I enjoy parallel play.
I believe in the
POWER of PARALLEL PLAY. Sis and I just enjoy hanging out. We both
MAY have
a touch of A.D.D. {UN-diagnosed!) Scratch that...we both have a higher than average CREATIVITY gene that MAY look a lot like A.D.D.
For some reason, my creativity gene manifests itself with
a little disorganization and inability to paint precise lines.
Anyway, I like to paint while Sis does other things. We both sit on her couch doing our own thing and ask each other for
advice compliments feedback from time to time.
Because I'm new at this whole painting thing and this is only my second attempt to paint without an instructor...I documented my steps. In case it's not immediately obvious, this is a painting of Pike Place Market in Seattle. If you get the chance to go to Seattle, Pike Place is not to be missed. The flowers are amazing!
I have undiagnosed ADD, but I don't doubt for one second I have it! lol This is a great tutorial btw, I'll have to try this!
ReplyDeleteThank you so much for stopping by & I'm so glad you liked the tutorial. :)
DeleteThanks so much for linking up to weekend wanderings so happy to have you!
ReplyDeleteThanks for coming by. :) I'm delighted to link up to your link party.
DeleteI LOVE this! Great work! Have you thought of hooking up with PaintPartyFriday? It's a blog for artists - pro and amateur. Very supportive group!
ReplyDeleteCheers! Keep on painting!!
Thank you for the compliment. I'm such a novice. But I'm enjoying the process. Thanks for the info on PaintPartyFriday. I'd not heard of it before. Just checked it out. Too cool.
DeleteI'm totally jealous of your picture. I've got lots of creativity, but not an ounce of skill when a paintbrush is involved! LOL Keep at it!
ReplyDeleteThank you so much. I'm a true novice. The thing that makes me brave to try to paint is that I know if I hate it I can paint the entire canvas white and use it again. (Just like Monet. :))
DeletePainting is so much fun...I really need to get back into it! Stopping by from the Networking Blog Hop…I would love if you would come say hello :)

Thank you so much. :) I gotta say it's not natural talent. I've just decided to see if I can do it.
DeleteLovely, friend. I'm dying to go to Pike's Place :) Hopefully one day. I also wanted to let you know I gave you a shout out on the blog today. BIG hug!!!!
ReplyDeleteLOVED the shout out. :) Really can't wait for you to be able to go and enjoy. I know you will have lots to share. Oh, and you have to go to Pike's Place. Seattle is a very fun place. I was lucky to have lived in that area for 7 years!! I never dreamed I would live there.
DeleteWow, you are very talented! Lovely painting and a great tutorial!!
ReplyDeleteThank you so much!
DeleteVery cute! It looks great! I love Pike's Place! I use to live in Seattle...seems like a million years ago. Thanks for linking up to the All Star Block Party!

Thank you. :) I lived in the Seattle area for 7 years. Just moved back to my "home town" two years ago. I'm from the SE, so living in the NW was such a fun experience. We must dish. :)

DeleteI have never been to Seattle. Maybe one day. Love the painting. I need to try painting more often. Thanks for sharing at Toot Your Horn Tuesday :)
ReplyDeleteThx for the compliment on the painting. I'm delighted to share on Toot Your Horn. Painting is a completely new hobby for me. My first attempt at painting on canvas was last year. Also, Seattle is a must see. I recommend anytime in the summer.
