A busy day today so I had only 5 minutes to spare. I put out a small amount of Umber paint & swiped it on the trees till I ran out.

Today I added branches to the trees & extended some of the trunks. I also stamped with a text stamp here & there, & stamped a few little tiny birds in the trees. They aren't showing up as yet. As well, I added some torn text that had been stamped on tissue paper. I placed it randomly & then stencilled over it with aqua, blue, terracotta & gold, to push it into the background. And I added some black to a small area of the trunks.

Wow! day 15, half way there. I've now added more trunks across the canvas, & another small one on the left side. I tried to cover up some of the umber on the trunks I painted yesterday but it looked a bit messy, so I added some umber back to them, but it is less than yesterday & I still like how they look. I outlined the first few trees on the left with a black paint pen.

Today I used a credit card to drag Dina Wakley umber paint into the trunks from the outside edges. I love how this looks.

#AASG30daychallenge day 13

 3rd August 2016


Today I started work on some trees. I want to cover the canvas with Birch trees. I've never done anything like this before, so it is quite a challenge. I used sand colour paint mixed 50/50 with white paint. I started out just painting the trunks, but couldn't keep the lines straight, so I finished up using masking tape to define the lines.
