Hello everyone, hope you are well and happy, things have been busy here, lots of commissions which I love, and I have also been working on the Koala for 100 Artworks for Koalas, my piece will be named Rebirth, its only at the first stages at the moment I will share how we are going with him later in the week.
I found some coasters when I went for a supply pick up this week and decided what the hey lets give them a go, I ended up painting them with turtles on them, I think they are really cute. I started by giving them a light wash of white to give the beachy feel, drew the outline and then painted them with acrylic paints, I got better at it as I went on :-) Also I did a quick wood panel of a Major Mitchell in Acrylics this week, they are one of my favourites and I felt the urge, you may remember the disaster of the magpie that I did and the sealant made the paint spread across the wood panel, well guess what the Major Mitchell is the same wood panel. I just sanded it down until the majority of the magpie and disaster had gone, I got it a couple of coats of base white then a light coat of Blue Mist then sanded lightly to give it a beach feel. I think he turned out just fine, what are your thoughts on the colour etc I love the blue mist tone its so fresh with the pink and orange of the Major :-) Anyway will blog again later this week, for now its back to commissions which I cant share and my Koala for 100 artworks for Koalas check out the website its a very exciting project to be asked to be in involved in :-) Have the best week everyone and thanks for following :-) https://livingwithkoalas.com.au/100-artworks-for-a-koala/?fbclid=IwAR1xriEoZh6AoEN-z_ajSKMpNG90co4ltj3B94f7nteSoxFTiudm0sqEziU
