Art Journal #10 // Pet Portrait


I found I could say things with color and shapes that I couldn't say any other way--
things I had no words for.” - Georgia O'Keeffe


This morning I worked on a pet portrait...adding layers of washes and blocking in the shape of the body. I like doing several paintings at once so I can work on whatever skill is my strength at that particular time. This morning I needed to free my mind to create abstractly, and this is what I came up with. Some days I can focus on details more, and other days are about color exploration.

Always go with the creative flow, don't block or control.
Free up your creativity!

I am available to do your pet's custom portrait! https://www.etsy.com/listing/482111463/
