A fun challenge with new colors introduced each week. This week: Citron Green and Turquoise.
I started out with some paint and a straw…I really like this technique now!!
But it needed something.
So…
I made a small image to plunk down on top of this juicy background…a summer beverage for summer of color. Now it looks just right to me ☺
And I doodled up a quick index card for this challenge. This size is perfect for doodling while doing other things: watching TV, talking on the phone, whatever. So relaxing.
Love that abstract painted background and the glass with the drink is perfect on it. I wanted to do that index card challenge - but no time. I love your sketch of the corn.
ReplyDeleteLooks good enough to drink! What a wonderful, bright, colorful background for such a beautiful Summer piece, love it! xoxo
ReplyDeleteHi Sue. Nice to meet you. Colorific is how I'm describing this weeks colors. Love how you placed the glass in front. It looks inviting. Great job on SOC and your corn. In fact we picked corn today from the garden.:) thanks.
