I thought the three big pages were very interesting, hopefully the last two will dry better😀I’m intrigued by your use of wallpaper lining paper, I don’t think it’s a big thing here in Australia, could you shed some light on why you use it please. Thank you

@CarolynJRobertsArtist 10 күн бұрын

Thanks Milly. I just use this lining paper for experimental work - I wouldn't use if for 'saleable' work. It's cheap paper that I don't get precious over. Carolyn

Hi Carolyn I thought you had some beautiful washes on the 3 you were not happy with, just beautiful 😍😍😍 Hopefully when you look at them with fresh eyes you will be able to see what I see. If they do turn out to be too tall, you can always quote them with that gloss medium when you’re done. Gloss medium will make them glow. 👍

Thx Catherine - yes, I've left them for the weekend, and will take another look on Monday! Have added in some of the gloss gel medium, so will see if that makes a difference!

Really cool! Why did you choose the lining wallpaper instead of other paper? Is this what you like to use for these paintings?

@CarolynJRobertsArtist 12 күн бұрын

Thank you! This is just an experiment to see how to create the soft washes - the lining paper is a cheap alternative for experimental work. Carolyn

I did once and just flaffed ed about, as you say. I have the desire to paint but just not the energy…and here we are with USA Thanksgiving coming upon us and it’s just my husband and I to celebrate. Planning on going up to the lake next week and hide from the festivities. We will have a simple but traditional holiday meal. I’m so sad … Hope you and yours are doing well!

Thankyou! Brilliant inspiration. I take so many materials when I go away, walk, etc get so intimidated by choice and never do anything, so love the black, ink, graphite. First time l've actually been inspired and then actually DONE something! Your 'struggles' also help a lot. Seriously.

Hi Carolyn, thanks for the demo, they are always food for thought. I have a spray bottle like yours which tends to spurt. A Chinese artist friend introduced me to a florist mister, which gives a longer softer spray.When used with less water on the paper, it gives a different effect.
