Sunday, November 5, 2006 - Beautiful day for Fabric Painting |
Today was warm, sunny and a beautiful Spring day here. Just perfect for sun painting. I'm in a swap with Michelle - one of her beautiful pendants for some painted fabric. Here's a link to Michelle's gorgeous glass jewellery: http://www.flickr.com/photos/shoozlesfusesglass/ And, of course, I jumped at the offer to be the owner of such beautiful glass art!! Tomorrow will be another day of painting, and I will pick out the best to send off to Michelle. Here's an example of today's painting.....
I broke up a silk flower and layed down the layers on the painted fabric, and also added some ivy leaves. The flowers turned out great, but the leaves were a bit of a blob. You live and learn. Ohhh look, there's our hippie tank in the background.........

But take a look at how the flowers turned out - I love them!! At the start they were white, now they're multi coloured. I think Michelle might like a couple of these flowers too......

So, that's it for today - all packed up, raring and ready to paint again tomorrow. I'm going to try shaving cream prints! |
