I couldn't wait to try out more variations and strokes with "the brush"; what I hadn't realized is how long I would spend on setting up; measuring, lying down the tape, masking, all for that brief moment of whoosh. And then it's over. And it's back to setting up.

from where I'm sitting it was worth it for the whoosh!
ReplyDeleteThanks Maureen, I love doing smaller work then it's time to break out!
DeleteSo COOL! I like the total effect/look!
ReplyDeleteThanks Sue, I'm having fun!
DeleteIsn't it interesting how some of the simplest images are so complex in the making? The practice sheets look like a possible series as well. Enjoy!
ReplyDeleteThat's the part I keep forgetting Victoria, and after a while I just need to move the energy around. Helps me move [in more ways that one.] Thanks
DeleteThere's a trash can in my studio that would gladly accept any overflow whooshes! Just saying...
ReplyDeleteLove your comment Jennifer, thanks for my morning giggle!
