This is an example of a painting that is started by creating imprints on watercolor paper with various items. Usually things are placed in a random manner but for this one I decided to carefully place some string to create a container on the lower half of the paper. The upper half had some twigs, raffia, string, ribbon and gauze strewn around the paper before being sprayed with several watercolor paints. The plan was for a floral but I have to admit I struggled with the right side of the painting. There were two straight lines of white paper with hard edges that just didn't work! it took some deep digging into my creativity to find an appealing way to finish this painting.
