Something a little bit different from me today. A mini painting of a very dark brooding stormy sky which I have created for this week's Simon Says Monday challenge called "Whatever the Weather".
I used cotton wool and acrylic paint to create the cloudy sky. I love using cotton wool with acrylics for painting as you can get lovely soft edges that I find difficult to get with a paint brush.
The little birds are a stamp by That's crafty called Lynne's Affirmations-set 2. And I added an Inkylicious branch stamp around the edges.
That's it for today, see you soon xx
Stunning, your acrylic with the cotton wool ball have created so much atmosphere and the branch is so subtle in the corner. Perfect sentiment :)
ReplyDeletejust amazing looking...such a wonderful sense of motion.

This is pretty cool. I love the darkness of it all. It reminds me of how I feel about winter right now, which is I am so over it, but here in Montana I still have months to go.

ReplyDeleteI just saw this on the Simon Says Stamp Monday challenge winners. They were absolutely right in choosing your project. The painting is magnificent. I may "borrow" your technique for some Halloween projects.
