Paper, acrylics, crayons, Zig writer, Posca white, Liquitex Portrait Pink Pen. I started with scribbles to “activate” the paper as they say. The early marks are were still visible under the layers of paint, so I decided to accentuate them.

I added circles in bright pink, but the crayon was muted on the acrylic. I tried the Liquitex pen and that added a shine, an interesting addition. I outlined some of the circles and filled in others. Next, I added white to some of them. Now there is shiny white, glossy pink, and a flat background.

I am not really a fan of mid-century modern. And I am not sure this falls into that category. It turned out completely different from what I had in mind. Haha, how many times have I said that before? But I have two more in the series.

Happy Day one everyone! Let’s have some fun!

Play, have fun and take risks.
Someone somewhere will always love your work.
It’s not your job to like or love your work.
Your job is to enjoy the process of creating it.

    Ha ha – I don’t know if it is mid century modern either but it is fun. I like the colours and I like the funny little ‘dog’ I see in the circle.
