VIDEO: Can I Use Up All My Leftover Paint? – Stretch Your Products Art Challenge!

Flower artwork made with leftover paint bu Kim Dellow

 

Art Challenge Time! What do you do with the paint leftover from a project? Usually I just wipe it from my palette onto a page in my Junk Journal to use later. Or if there is only a little bit left I might dump it.

But not this time! My art challenge to you (and me!) is to use up some leftover paint and turn it into another piece as a sort of art ‘cool down’. You know, like when you cool down after exercise? Maybe this should be a thing? We do art warm ups, so why not cool downs? 

Anyway! Watch the video and give it a go and let me know how you get on with this art challenge.

I quite like the look of layered and interwoven line floral art. I think it might be something I revisit! 

Have fun with your leftover paint art challenge pieces and I will see you next time with the other piece to show you how that one turned out. 

Of course in the meantime I have plenty of other videos to watch to get you creating if you are able to at the moment. So watch my Get Creating Video Playlist which is full of ideas to get you arting!
