Found Lilies at a much needed retreat
This last weekend was the 4th of July holiday here in the US, and Alan and I bravely went on a much needed retreat at a friend's ranch in Tennessee. Talk about remote, this was in the edge of nowhere, but lovely, trees and plants as far as the eye could see.
I went fully armed with a lot of art supplies, but ended up not drawing as much as I thought I would. I think I just needed to chill and do nothing for a change. I did manage to complete a couple of found flowers pieces which reminded me a little of yellow lilies, even though there were no lilies in sight.
Here's another view for you. To the left you can see a second watercolor picture which is waiting to be completed.
I'm enjoying these found flowers so much!
Feel free to pin these images.
Every once in a while I like to take a break and try something different than drawing. A couple of weeks ago I watched a several videos on how to make crepe paper flowers and even made a few! It was a fun week! From dying the paper to shaping the petals and making the core, it was a fun activity. But don't worry, the fad didn't last too long and I’m back to tangling now., just didn't have the time to post these here.
