Maybe I should call it a zentangle? a mandala? or maybe just a doodle? . Then I got distracted by all my other types of art. Finally I have some quiet time to sit and work on this some more. #myrockpaperart #selftaughtartist #blackandwhitedrawing #mandalaart #mandaladrawing #mandalapassion #mandalaartist #selftaughtmandalaartist #mandaladesign #mandalaartwork #redbubbleartist 5/4/2024 0 Comments Finished project....Here we go. Start to finish. Draw the piece, then outline it with leading. Use my markers to set out the color palette on the original drawing. Then paint it, with a few alterations while painting to make the colors more balanced. Then it's done. Now I just have to drill a couple holes in the acrylic panel so I can hang it.
I did learn an important lesson - sadly I found out the hard way that acrylic panels scratch easily. I was working on the board I use for sorting my sea glass and after finishing when I held up my piece to admire it I found a bunch of scratches on the back. In the future I will only remove the protective cover on the side I am painting. I will tell the recipients of the pieces about the back covering and they can decide whether or not to remove it. #liquidstainedglass #fauxstainedglassart #stainedglass #glassart #pebeovitrail #pebeoglasspaint #whimsicalart #galleryglassliquidleading #galleryglassart #myrockpaperart #pintart #pebeo 5/1/2024 0 Comments Let the painting begin....The lead outlining is finished and dried. Next step - time to paint. I used some markers to figure out my color pattern on my original drawing and now it's time to start applying paint - this is the fun part! Got all my tools ready - toothpicks and eye droppers to apply the paint with, Q-tips in case I make a mistake and of course my paints. Pint Art paint that I found in Mexico, Pebeo Vitrail paint and of course Gallery Glass. #liquidstainedglass #fauxstainedglassart #stainedglass #glassart #pebeovitrail #pebeoglasspaint #whimsicalart #galleryglassliquidleading #galleryglassart #myrockpaperart #pintart #pebeo All the outlining is done now I can start painting. I think I'm doing it in combinations of greens and blues and I'm going to add a little silver acrylic paint just to make a pop. It's going to be a slow process because the paint I work with has the consistency of water so I can't put paint side by side or there's be good likelihood that it will run into each other. I have to do one section and nothing around it until it dries. Then I can put the color that will be next to it. Slow and steady - have patience! This is my mantra as I tend to like to have projects that I can start and finish the same day! I'm learning - slowly, slowly - to get past that expectation and allow things to progress over a number of days. Maybe that's why I tend to have multiple things going at once so while I'm waiting on one thing I can still be working on something else. We'll see how it turns out. I'm excited! #liquidstainedglass #fauxstainedglassart #stainedglass #glassart #pebeovitrail #pebeoglasspaint #whimsicalart #galleryglassliquidleading #galleryglassart #myrockpaperart Sometimes I have an idea that sits in my head for a while and slowly develops. This is one of those ideas. A few days ago I drew the circles and then put the paint around the outside with the plan of it becoming a mandala. This morning I woke up with this idea of adding the colors within the circle so I'm working on that now and I have a feeling this will be a Zentangle not a mandala. But we'll see. It will continue to float around in my head and the creative ideas will come to me when they're ready.
