I'm having so much fun in Mystele's Gut Art Class . . . learning what is (and isn't) a part of my authentic art making style.
These are journal pages I was playing with today - actually they are each part of a page. I'm learning that I often like a part of my painting more than the whole. Apparently, I dig a skewed or partial, more mysterious perspective. Hmmmmm. Good to know before committing to painting a large canvas.
These pages were done using Mystele's "pulled art" technique. That means finding a shape or image in the painted backgrounds and "pulling" it into view! It's incredible.....no need to come up with an idea of what to paint . . . it's already there! Just look for shapes, sketch it in and refine. Such freedom!
Here are the full page spreads . . .
