Creativity requires the courage to let go of certainties.

Last night's play time.
A bit of collage for starters...
at this point, i rarely know what i'll be painting.
A quick little sketch...
At first i just wanted her to have curly hair,
but then it quickly became out of control. :-)
I usually sketch the outline on the canvas/collage with charcoal...
she seemed more sad than my sketch...
sometimes i mix the paint on my palette,
other times, i put the paint directly on the collage (as i did here)...
I kinda like the orange lips...
having fun with the hair & gave her
a bit more of a smile...
added black, white, and a bit of detail
and there you have it.
Happy girl with funky hair & snazzy flowers.
I use tissue paper for part of the collage
and i love how the fibres overlap.
Wishing you all a great week
filled with sunshine & lollipops.
:-)
