Check out those clouds! I'm pretty pleased with them!
After my last painted piece (that mermaid), I realized that I needed painting lessons - I believe I might have talked about it and some of you advised against it ;) - I *still* think I need painting lessons but haven't had time - so instead, I scoured You Tube for "how to" videos, found one on cloud painting (I believe it was one of BobDavies88 's videos - if you're interested in painting you should check him out, he's awesome, and free!), followed the instructions and et voila!
Things are going well so far! Come back on Friday to see if it continues in this manner...
Linking up with The Needle and Thread Network for WIP Wednesday go check 'em out!

ReplyDeleteThat sky is looking pretty awesome! I too think I need to learn some more general art techniques. Thinking about Art classes - somewhat inspired by Annabel Rainbow who mixes paint and textile with stunning effect.
Are you using a general acrylic paint of fabric paint?

Nice clouds. I am curious to know what size you are working on here.
ReplyDeleteThanks for reminding me of Bob Davies - I could use some painting lessons, too ;-)) Your sky is beautiful - lovely clouds !
ReplyDeletei like it just as it is!
ReplyDeletethat is a gorgeous sky - you could be giving painting lessons.
ReplyDeleteExcellent sky:) I love YouTube. It's amazing what you can find.
ReplyDeleteI love Youtube! I thought of you yesterday when I saw "gesso" at our local store. I'm still not exactly sure what it is, but I now know it's a liquid paint LOL! I'll have to go on Youtube too. Ironically, I have an aunt who is an incredible painter, but she lives thousands of miles away :(.
ReplyDeleteLooking Good. Can't wait for the buildings. I use youtube a lot and it is much cheaper than a class or book.
ReplyDeleteLovely work!
ReplyDeleteI love the entire piece, great job!
ReplyDeleteYour sky is amazing. Love it.
ReplyDeleteKit your sky is amazing, I'm going to have to come back and visit again.
ReplyDeleteI would still advise against lessons. They make you tight. I say just keep on doing what you are doing but keep doing - making. You are amazing.
ReplyDeleteI don't think everyone reacts to classes the same way. Some people might find their creativity stifled but I'm pretty sure, that if they keep at it, that would lessen over time. Other people would find that lessons add to their skill set.
ReplyDeleteWhoa, that sky is awesome, Kit. I'll definitely be checking out that video - -thanks for sharing it.
ReplyDeleteWonderful clouds , I must check out the video , I love you tube!
ReplyDeleteYouTube is amazing - you can find tutorials for just about everything there! Love the sky and will be waiting to see what the rest will look like!
