Trying Something New

What and How Do I Learn

by Try8ng Something New 

There were no test tubes or bunson burners,

but there was lots of experimenting going on.

I don't usually do a background like this, but it was fun

playing in the paint.  

We have lots of tulips blooming in our yard right now

and these orange ones are beautiful.

The goal was to work quickly,

achieve that foreshortened front view,

and to have lots of fun and not stress over whatever came out.

This was painted on 140 lb. water color paper.

As usual, I learned lots doing this painting.

One of the main things was I loosened up quite a bit.

I tend to paint tight and anything I can do to loosen up

is a good thing.

Thanks for stopping by.

Have a great day.
