A friend asks: What are your "prompts"?
Perhaps that is synonymous with" inspirations". "Points of departure". What launches me?
Yesterday it was experimenting with a new "professional" brush
that was on sale at Rockport Blueprint
I also was inspired by some fused, wild, quilted pieces that my friend Beth gave me.
They got me going on some color combinations that I would not normally use.
I did not copy her assembled colors, but they sparked some new explorations.
Making cards for friends, always a nice spark.
I continue to Sketchbook Wander, & it is still my favorite art practice,
sketches prompted by what is in front of me..
But FINALLY being allowed back into my home, makes me want to stay here for awhile.
I am reunited with some paints & brushes that I have missed.
What launches YOU into a zone of creating with art materials or with writing tools?
Well..you do!
ReplyDeleteI must confess to having painted an Easter card yesterday,today I added a pop up..Happy Easter..you know where I got that from:)

Witam. Mieszaj, mieszaj kolory i pokazuj efekty. Bardzo się cieszę, że mnie odwiedziłaś, że pamiętasz o mnie. Nie mam dzisiaj urodzin, jest tylko Dzień Kobiet. Mam nadzieję, że przeczytasz mój teks w języku polskim. Ty pisz do mnie po angielsku, bo to łatwiejsze dla Ciebie. Pozdrawiam i ściskam.
ReplyDeleteI am SO glad you are back home and in peace!!
ReplyDeleteI just started a new sketchbook and replaced my (worn out!) waterbrush, so I'm feeling somewhat inspired. Love the colors in these pieces, Rita. Gorgeous.
