creativity this week abstracts with paint and fabric

welcome to this week's creativity update. 

this week I overcame a lot of pain... (my lovely puppy and I collided and I left with an injury) (no poodles were hurt in this episode) 

Ha ha! I thought it was a game til Mama started limping...

...to paint a bit and sew a bit by machine and by hand 

I wanted to use up some paint in my palette so I just painted shapes on my sketchbook page... 

I do love warm colors and overlapping watercolors   triangles, squares, circles

the scrap focus of the month of June is pastels.... so it showed up in my abstract painting too
OBSERVE  watercolors, caligraphy ink pens, dry stamps to remove wet paint

some pastel solid fabrics... 

and another hexie spiral is begun...

more warm colors merge in the sketchboolk
watery paint, dry stamps lifting color, stamps leaving ink on colors
gold, fuchia gray 
I like this tiny one a lot... must remember to make a larger picture using these colors in future

I put two fabric sewn abstracts together on the design wall and they caught my breath!


same colors as in the painting.... I am attracted to warm colors, this time orange and pink... 

I remember going to modern art galleries and seeing the artists painting abstracts in one color
I called it the big red door concept
and look at me doing it my way now! 
don't know where it's going but I know the lovely geese don't travel well with them! 
That's why a design wall is a GOOD thing
I like to spy on mama this way!
