This is one of my favourite ways to experiment with colour, texture, materials, etc. It is something I did in an experimental acrylic art class I took this year. I was doing it one day when M arrived for her art lesson. She liked what she saw and wanted to give it try too.
I cut up watercolour paper into small pieces (around 4x6). I use 4 or 5 pieces at a time so that I can work in layers without having to wait for a single piece to dry. I tape them to the table with masking tape to prevent the paper from buckling and to create a white border around the finished product.
I use watercolours, acrylics, ink, and chalk and oil pastel. I also use different tools to create pattern and texture such as Princeton Catalyst tools (my absolute favourites) and little bits of recycling and garbage I have rescued to use for printing.
These are M's.
