TALKING AND WORKING

I am a member of Churchtown Art Club (which is on facebook) and this weekend we had an exhibition.  Three of us work on the day, answering questions about painting and the club.  Here is what I managed to painting while chatting.  Some of the paintings went awry, but hey, I had fun.
Brusho and bleach.  If you can spot her, there is a nude hidden away. Her face has been bleached out as it was awful, I will adjust sometime in the future

This was my warm up exercise to see how fast the paint was drying and if my brush was working!!  Painted the whole sheet yellow , then nagatively painted around the Budapest Parliament buildings, upside down. Not easy for the first painting of the day.

Eccinachea (can't spell it).  I have to concentrate when doing my nemisis, flowers, and went a bit awry with the r/h flower.

This painting is from a photograph my Sharon Whitley, and was a challenge, thank you Sharon.  Brusho, Ink and bleach.  End of the day when I was flagging.  But the most fun of the four to paint.

Have a lovely week everyone.

  1. Dear Polly-each one of these is delightful. I agree that last one does look like the most fun. Made me smile. Have a super day.

  2. What does bleach do to the paper? I know I've got holes in towels that I'm sure bleach caused the break down of the fibers… Love your paintings… hope they last :-)

  6. All lovely loose and vibrant pieces Polly but I love the one of the Budapest Parliament building. Sounds like a tiring but fun day. ;-)
