At last, another digital painting: Poppies by the Stream.
It's in my favourite digital oil pastels (by Pixarra Twisted Brush) but also something new: an 8" by 8" landscape, deliberately quicker, looser, and more abstract.
The question I'm asking myself is: why do I leave it so long between paintings. I *love* to paint, but stop myself with all the things I feel I have to do.
To get around this, am attempting more paintings, but with shorter time limits, and a more "broad brush" approach, as you see here.
(This picture is based on some beautiful poppies-and pretty purple flowers-in my inlaws' garden in Devon).
Will "being more casual, more often" this work? Time will tell.
Do you find yourself putting off doing things you love? And/or have you found a way around it? Please comment if you can relate, and/or to say "hi"...and have a great day!
P.S. I posted the original design to give you the idea. But I'm really excited about how it came out on household goodies like this...
