60 ATC Technique Swap
Art techniques group is having an ATC technique swap. 60 artists will be showing their version of a technique. This is a fun way to see something you might not be familiar with or a different slant on something you've tried. I had purchased a package of long , narrow cold press watercolor paper and knew exactly which stamp I'd use. My craftroom is so disgracefully crowded I have to work in the kitchen.
I normally wouldn't work there, but Mother (84) is recovering from pneumonia and spending most of her time upstairs. So I paint my stamp using umber gesso on a foam applicator and start stamping on the dry paper. I do 6 sheets. This has to dry.
I wet my paper and add some watercolors. I used yellow, red, green, and violet. I also used Making Memories green Spray mist and a Tim Holz reinker. Mother comes down and watches."How do you know what that's going to look like ? How do you know how to do that?" She thinks I am doing nothing when I am on the computer or doing art. We think with different sides of our brain. I flyspeck a little and, of course I've wiped on paper towels, so I allow it all to dry. Each sheet is a little different and I am wondering if they look too busy? They look great when I cut them into
