Step 3: wash of yellow from…

Step 3: wash of yellow from…

Step 3: wash of yellow from a Stabilo water-soluble pencil. Even though more stuff will go on top, this gives the whole a shared undertone.

When the painter worked on my mom’s living room walls, he said the color she chose was like sunshine. So we call her place the Sunshine House now. 🌞

After this, there aren’t any defined steps - it’s just me playing with paint and process and texture until what’s on the board is close to the image in my head, or looks good enough to me to stop.

This is a series of notes for my art project of using a reference photo of Mom’s flowers as the basis for a mixed media artwork that will be used to create a wooden jigsaw puzzle with garden whimsy pieces. Ideally in time for Mother’s Day. 🤞💐
