These have me thinking cosmos. Or satellite views of the earth. Not angels. The microscopic cells did not survive drying. They collapsed, leaving broken shards of color. I was surprised that the thick paint dried overnight. On pour three, the white paint was thick, but somehow the texture of the canvas is visible. There are little concave dimples. Weird and interesting.
The canvas sides are eye-catching. Maybe even more so that the fronts.
Tried to show the shine of the metallic in the last two images. But you know how difficult it is to capture. So, out of 7 attempts, I ended up with one angel. I am going to try once more with the lavender canvas tomorrow. We’ll see how it goes. Be seeing you!
Agree with Karen, you might not have gotten what you thought you’d like but boy did you get some interesting pictures. Great colors.
Thanks Nelvia, I really love that the sides are so interesting too 🙂
Oh, these have my imagination going. In the first one I see three potential people in a circular dance; the last one, someone falling. I think this is a great idea for when we have a creative block, to let the juicy colors flow and then let our imagination come up with something…so freeing. Great idea!
I like what you see Laurelle 🙂 When I did the pours, I just had to leave it to the paint and cross my fingers. It was fun to watch the paint move. Hope you are having a creative day, Enjoy 🙂
You may not have gotten what you were going for, but what you got is very cool!
Thanks Karen, I agree. The little shards sort of look like confetti. The metallic did some neat things I didn’t expect. Enjoy your day Karen 🙂
It is too bad that none of these turned out with something that worked with angels although they are very interesting in their own right. It is also too bad that they dried so differently. Pouring is always a crap shoot – lol. Have a great day Sheila!
Yup, love how you put it Val 🙂 Roll of the dice, LOL. Hope you day is a great one too 🙂
Love the effects these have, The pours seem to take on a life of their own!
They do Carol, great way to describe it 🙂
