Tongue in Cheek Fun




This painting, watercolor on Bristol paper, was another "experimental" idea.  I've painted on Bristol "board" before but never on the paper (trust me, it's not for watercolor!).  The idea was really, as I said, just to see how the paint would react...it's about 11 x 14.  Sometimes I like to put a sense of humor into a painting.  See if you find what I mean in this one.  The painting is called "The Paper Hands Flowers".  
And the inspiration were my Mother's Day flowers made by my two youngest grandsons, Mike and Pat who traced around their hands and then their mom cut out the flowers.
