Red Ginger
I've been wanting to do a red torch ginger painting for our master bath since we moved in and after getting some canvas panels thought it would be fun to try it on those.
I sketched out my design using a sketch and wash pencil and then went in with acrylics. I placed it in the bath over the weekend to "live with it" and see what I wanted to change on it. Here's a first look before I go in and make changes...I like to share the ongoing process with you. I think it gives a look into the creative process and/or the mind of the artist.
So...a few things I want to change...the lauhala is too brown - needs to be lightened and more texture lines added. The ginger needs to extend further down below the banana leaf. Add a second bloom? Randy suggested the ginger to have more definition like it did when I sketched it in pencil.
Stay tuned!

Failed it!
Have you seen those gorgeous snowflakes you make from hot glue and glitter that are plastered all over pinterest? Gor-gee-ous! Really. See?
ROFL! These suck!
Seriously.
But they make me laugh too. I painted them blue because I wasn't quite ready to throw them away but I am now. I'm glad I didn't waste glitter on them.
I bought a new glue gun.
This adventure lead no where interesting. Matter of fact...I changed direction altogether.
Here's a peek.
Remember my last post about snowflakes and blue things and how one thing leads to another?
Here ya go...
