While the baby was napping, I took the time to try out a new painting style. I saw this recently on Make it Artsy, which is a fun show that hightlights all sorts of creative styles. You can watch episodes free online.
This is my first attempt at painting with a palette knife. The acrylic paint is thickened with modeling paste. I started with one of my favorite subjects: Sunflowers!
To get the texture in the centers, I used a straw! Can't wait until my next creative 15 minutes or half hour to try this again, but, for now, the baby is awake!
Hope this inspires you to get out there and get creative. Remember, it doesn't have to be perfect!
