Beautiful evening for a stroll at Gring’s Mill.

Not exactly how I saw it in my mind’s eye. And it’s a little messy here and there. But I think this technique has some great possibilities.
If you saw my story yesterday, you saw the beginning of this experiment with fine line liquid frisket. You can head to my stories if you’d like to see the removal of the frisket after I painted it.
What I like about this is how the frisket traps the watercolor and allows the color to pool up. Plus, frisket is just fun to remove. But this does take some time to allow for the drying of the frisket and watercolor in between steps.

I give my floral paintings female names for fun. This one is Ingrid, and she happens to be my current favorite. ⁠⠀
You can see Ingrid, and all the rest of my works for sale on my website. More will be added shortly.⁠⠀

This is a tiny peek at what happens in my studio when there is a collaborative project happening.
Stacks and stack of rough sketches, reworks, notes on changes, ideas to incorporate, which ideas to keep and work on and which ones to nix.
And it doesn’t stop until both parties are completely satisfied.
And with all that in mind, the collaborative project is one that brings so much joy. I can’t wait to share more about the exciting collaborations in the works.
Seeing my own artwork on products that people will purchase and use and receive joy from is so inspiring to me.
I will let you in on these as I can, but you will also be able to keep tabs on these kinds of projects on my website. (Link in profile).
