Discover Imperfection !!

Good morning, Im here with a quick post today for the 'A Sprinkle of Imagination' design team. You can click on any of the links to be directed to the products used on their website. 

One of the most common phrases I hear when teaching is 'I can't do that' !!!

As adults we are so obsessed with our art being perfect that we forget to enjoy the process......

But when we let go of perfection amazing things happen......

If we just enjoy the process and fall in love with the colours and not think about the end result then we can truly enjoy our art. 

For this journal page I used the yummy dylusions paints in Fresh lime, London blue, Vibrant turquoise, Bubblegum pink and Lemon Zest for my background and just scraped them on with a palette knife keeping the layers thin so they would be ideal for painting on.

I love the way my beautiful fairy flower girl emerged onto the page, I sketched her out and then began to paint in the features using a mix of Dina Wakely heavy body white, magenta, turquoise and umber paints, and Golden's nickel azo yellow. I finished all the details with Inktense coloured pencils and White Posca pen.

So next time you think you can't create something beautiful, let go of your fears, throw down the colours and discover and embrace imperfection   

Thanks for stopping by

Bright and painty hugs

Tracy
