I'm so sorry for your loss 😔 and at the same time, I am so happy watching me paint this sunflower showered you with joyful thoughts of your brother. ❤️ Sunflowers are a joyful flower to me and it seems your brother might have felt the same way about them too. I hope you see many sunflowers in bloom this summer and every time you do, may you be reminded of more happy memories with your brother. Thank you for making the time to share this with me 💕 and thank you for your kindness. 🤗

How lovely that sunflowers always remind you of your sister and bring happy memories to mind when you see them. I like the way they turn towards the sun as if full of optimism and joy. You have certainly captured that essence in your painting, the textures bring it to life. I am sure your sister will love it even if she is surrounded by sunflower gifts! 🌻😁🌻 In my garden I grow fuschias….which were my mother’s favourite flower. Perhaps I will try this idea to bring the garden inside! You are a ray of sunshine each week..☀️thank you! I wish you a week of golden moments 💛💙💫 B xx

Thank you so much for your kindness and candor! 💕🤗 I get it! It is so hard not to be critical of our work when we are first starting and at the same time, it can really get in the way of us continuing to create so we can keep strengthening our skills. I need to remind myself of this almost every single time I paint 😉 And the more we just let go and move forward with compassion and curiosity, the easier it gets for us to have fun and learn in the process. Every time you paint, ask yourself what did I learn today? For me, this helps me treat every painting session as a victory no matter the outcome. And, it can't hurt to remind yourself that being new at something is hard! So I applaud you for doing the hard thing and not giving up 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽❤️ Thank you so much for sharing a part of your journey with me! I'm so happy you are here with me! Let's see what else we can learn together ☺️

This piece turned out beautifully. I have a question. When the watercolor ground dries completely çould it just crack and fall off of the paper? Hope you have a great rest of your week.😊

@gabrielleannacormierart

Ай бұрын

Hi Machelle ❤️🤗 Thank you for your kindness and for your question! And it's a good one! I have been using watercolor ground in this way for over a year and so far, I have had no issue with it drying to the point of cracking and falling off my paper. I will however say that it is definitely more fragile than just painting over the paper and so it's important to take special care with your artwork. I intend to apply a fixative over mine and I will probably frame it in a deeper frame under glass. I have many years of experience working with acrylic mediums similar to this over canvas and I have also never had any issues. I hope this helps! Wishing you a wonderful rest of the week too ☺️💕 Yay for the upcoming weekend!! 😁

What’s the difference between gesso and watercolor ground ?

@gabrielleannacormierart

Ай бұрын

Great question! Gesso is a medium used to prepare different surfaces for painting that usually has a much thinner consistency than WC ground. I also use gesso mixed with water to create different effects in a variety of contexts. WC ground is a thicker medium and it is generally used to prepare surfaces to accept watercolor as it is more porous than gesso. Since WC ground is relatively thick, I like to use it to create textured details for my paintings. Some people in our community have mentioned that they have used modeling paste in a similar way as the ground. I hope this helps! ☺️

For the center of your flower I didn’t catch the name of what u used for the seeds?

I just realized a few moments ago that I had forgotten to add the art stones to the supplies list in my video description (they are there now ☺️). They come in three different sizes and I am using what I consider to be the medium size ones. I bet the smaller ones would have worked beautifully too.

You do get the most lovely results with salt…sigh.
