Find Your Joy Taster Course

Had a blast doing Louise's taster course. This is my result from the first lesson, where we picked 3 colours plus B&W and just went to town. We started on a full sheet of paper that was taped off into smaller grids. The idea was to treat it as one big painting, no thought given to the smaller areas, and work for no more than 30 minutes. This was to avoid thinking about what we were doing and just do what our intuition said to try. 

It looked quite the chaotic mess until the tape was removed and then, as always, the magic happens LOL. It never ceases to amaze me how different things look with that white border around them. The colours I used were Paynes grey, Quinacridone Nickel Azo Gold with a bit of Pyyrole red brought in just at the end for some visual pop. I've since cut them up into individual pieces to play with at a later date. A few I quite like now but most of them need some further resolution. 

I thought I would be good just carrying on with some of the ideas and exercises from the free taster course but after a couple of days pondering I committed to taking the full 10 week course. Starts Monday - can't wait!
