Today I went back to using my middle grey toned Raymar linen panel.
I did my "map" in charcoal and used a big bristle brush.
(instead of black tone on gesso board and synthetic brushes)
I had all those awesome new colors,
so I used Karin's palette.
(same couple from the other day, different view)
10 x 12
It felt good to use familiar tools
but I'll admit,
I ended up grabbing those new synthetic brushes in the end.
They are a lot of fun.
Who knew?
Wonderful painting. I was lucky enough to do Karin's workshop last November at HHI. She is amazing. I think we are supposed to take what works for us and incorporate that into our own style- good for you!
ReplyDeleteExceptionally beautiful, Nancy!
ReplyDeleteNancy, may I ask which "new synthetic brushes" you "grabbed" ?
ReplyDeleteThe ones Karin Jurick uses. Cheap short handled flats from Michaels. American artist. They have pink/purplish handles. They are real soft and pliable, especially if you use linseed oil medium!
ReplyDeleteFabulous painting Nancy :)
