to x share to facebook share to pinterest labels baking cooking food garden happiness wildlife thursday january 28 2010 adding color painting background continued well i started adding the first layer of color which i did in one afternoon i looked at the colors of the paper collage and decided to add a very light wash of pink and blue acrylic paint and see what that looked like not bad but i decided to spray the painting with water from a spray bottle and blot off some of the color simply because i like to work that way that s when i ended up with this pretty good but it still needed something and i decided to add a little gold in spots i know many shy away from metallics but i like them in moderation and this needed a little sparkle that looked and felt good and finished to me for now and created some really pretty areas now what to do next i don t have any idea so in the meantime i go and stare at it and turn it upside down and sideways and even touch it the texture is great i m not sure if should apply more color this time more opaquely or if i sketch in my subject i don t know how you work but when i m not sure i wait until i have a thought as to what s next i hope it comes soon posted by silke powers at 4 44 am 22 comments email this blogthis share to x share to facebook share to pinterest labels acrylic art background collage painting wednesday january 27 2010 wordless wednesday ribbit posted by silke powers at 4 44 am 36 comments email this blogthis share to x share to facebook share to pinterest labels wordless wednesday tuesday january 26 2010 preparing a painting background i ve had a few questions about the painting backgrounds i prepare so i thought i d take some step by step photos as i play with a new one here at first i cut out papers i like these are from scrapbook pads but you can use anything you like and sort of arrange them on the page because i don t sketch out my image before i start i don t plan where i adhere the paper i just sort of arrange it as i like it i took the picture above and then decided to add another couple of pieces then i put a large piece of cardboard over top of my watercolor block and flipped the papers over that gives me an idea of how i had them arranged the flip side looks interesting too i then take the golden soft gel matte medium and cover the watercolor paper and start gluing on the different pieces of paper watch out for air bubbles making sure i also go over them with the glue so that everything is completely covered by the end that gives this layer a nice protective cover and won t allow the paints to seep into the paper that will help to preserve the color if i decide to let it come through later on when i had it all done i added yet two more pieces of paper and then it looked balanced to me i was thinking how funny it is that i take such joy in selecting and arranging the paper even though when the painting is all done you may not see any of it anymore but i guess i still know it s there after i let that dry thoroughly i crumpled up tissue paper and applied a layer of that over the pretty papers i love the muted look and also the texture i get from the tissue paper this time i had used up all my gel medium so i used matte modge podge which is a sealant and glue and works quite well for this it s a little more liquid and sometimes easier to handle especially with delicate papers as i keep taking pictures you ll see that i work additive as well as subtractive here i decided to take a few corners of the tissue paper and tear it away to allow a nice contrast between the muted covered papers and the brightly colored ones i like that it ll make for a nice effect and great texture when i start adding paint that s how far i got today i hope you find this interesting i should say that i don t have anything in mind for this painting i m simply going with the flow and doing what i feel inspired to do next i ll apply some color stay tuned posted

dining room is this beautiful african basket i bought at the flea market in albuquerque in the basket is this gorgeous old laundry bag from my family and this lovely hand embroidered bag contains my unfinished business a stunning sweater coat i ve been knitting for myself for many years i finished the back and one half of the front and have been sort of at a standstill because i don t think i have enough yarn for all the leaves for the second half of the front and the yarn has been discontinued some years ago you see my dilemma but now i ve decided to try to finish the other half of the front and keep my fingers crossed that i have enough yarn i ll never know if i don t try and then i ll decide on the sleeves i may just keep it a long vest it goes down to my knees and not add sleeves if i don t have enough yarn or i may get matching yarn for the sleeves we ll see but this blog has been so good at keeping me accountable and busy with my other creative endeavors i thought it might help me in getting this done wish me luck posted by silke powers at 4 44 am 24 comments email this blogthis share to x share to facebook share to pinterest labels knitting sunday january 24 2010 finished i think painted on 15 x 22 inch 140 lb cold press rough watercolor paper well this is what my busy background click here to view and my image transfers click here to see turned into it was a long process and so delicious for the most part every step along the way i just stare at what i have without a clue as to what to do next and then suddenly inspiration hits i have a thought and off i go to apply another layer at the end daniel had some suggestions which made me grumble at first i thought i was done but then when i worked them into the painting it looked so much better after all unlike me he s been doing this such a long time thank you daniel p s speaking of daniel he s got a new post up on his blog don t miss it it made me laugh posted by silke powers at 4 44 am 31 comments email this blogthis share to x share to facebook share to pinterest labels acrylic art collage daniel image transfer painting saturday january 23 2010 commissioned portrait here it is my commissioned portrait for the lovely theresa of faerie moon creations it s the first time except for painting daniel and me once that i tried to paint a likeness of someone even for my previous commission for joanne i only had a photo of her cat zigsa but painted the woman from my imagination it s also only the second time i ve painted a woman with a big smile so i am very proud that this turned out so well and that theresa loves it it s going to be a gift for her husband so shhhhhhh don t mention it in comments on her blog i ve been painting and painting this week and have all but finished the large piece i was working on i ll be posting that tomorrow i hope to make the rounds to all your blogs this weekend i ve missed seeing what you all have been up to posted by silke powers at 9 42 am 23 comments email this blogthis share to x share to facebook share to pinterest labels acrylic art commission painting tuesday january 19 2010 image transfers i ve been having lots of fun with image transfers on the larger painting i am working on i hadn t played with image transfers in a while and really missed it the process is fairly simple you apply gel medium i use golden soft gel medium matte to both the surface you want the image transferred to and the image itself then you position the image on the surface use your brayer to get it really glued on when it s all dry spray a little water on the paper and start rubbing off the layer of paper what you are left with is the image transferred to the gel medium click on images to see them larger now this works best with an image on regular paper rather than a photo on photo paper i think there are different techniques for that here i used some pretty scrap book papers if you transfer an image to a smooth and solid colored background it s easy to know what you ll end up with in this case however all bets were off my background was multi colored and very textured but it turned out really well if you click on the images you can see the faint picture of an old postcard on the first one an old map on the second one and a border of a pretty vine and flowers on the this image it s all coming together nicely on another note yesterday daniel called me outside because we had a whole flock of cedar waxwing birds in our ornamental pear tree eating the tiny fruit they migrate through here and it was so much fun watching them through our binoculars the neighbors probably thought we were spying on them what gorgeous birds photo courtesy of wikipedi a wishing you all a most wonderful tuesday i ll be by your blogs later
