In bed sick.
Scrolling art on phone via substack-
Being unwell always makes me slightly gloomy but it is nice to gaze upon something beautiful for a while, and think about what low pressure art I might try and do while resting. That page on the left came from the painting on the right hand side. Just like I can paint from sketches, I can also draw from paintings.
Keep repainting over the top of old artwork- I finally like the colors on this one. I also like how the original colors come through in patches.
I did another review of paper works and sorted them into piles - to scan / sell , to rework or keep as inspiration and to bin/recycle.
An older piece, initially wax resist and Japanese Watercolor, then this week added acrylic gouache.
This is a reminder - sometimes it is worth pushing an old work, rather than recycling or binning it, because you may get something new that appeals to your taste today.
