The Blues

The Blues – Acrylic/Ink on Canvas Board – 10×12 inches

Here is my latest drippy, finger painting.  Wanting to try something different, I used texture paste on the canvas board and then made an imprint with a silicone template for cake making.  I think it is used to make a decorative design with icing.  I tried it with the gesso last time, but it was too subtle.  You should be able to see the impression of roses on this painting.  After the texture paste dried, I painted a layer of gesso over it.  My background layer is a couple of coats of purple iridescent paint.  Then I used all of the blues in my stash.  I used ink for the leaves and extra drips.

I think that this will be the last drippy flower painting I will be making for awhile.  This item is for sale in my Etsy shop and can be found here.
