I am trying to recharge and refresh some old canvases and this week I thought I would ‘save’ this mini canvas with a simple mixed media flower. It is very abstract but fun to do. Now I start with a yellow underpainting and you will see why in the video! So enjoy watching the process and having a play yourself on one of your old canvases.
And don’t forget to share any projects on the #KimDellowFloralJune hashtag over on instagram.
I have also been sharing some fun floral creative exercises over on Patreon for if you wanted to stretch your floral art practice or just try something different! (Not sure what Patreon is then watch this short video explainer!)
