I experimented with painting on tissue paper today. The paint really spreads and soaks into this paper, which I found frustrating--it made details impossible to really achieve. The effect that resulted was soft and ethereal, not really fitting for this piece--or at least what I had in mind for this piece--but it could certainly be nice for others.
I love this idea! You say it was frustrating and made details hard to achieve, but I love the subtlety. And the colors you chose were perfect!
ReplyDeleteThis is a Great Idea. I feel that I am painting with you when I view this. Your allowing the viewer a chance to fill in some of the blanks as well as make the parts that you tried to detail created this uncontrolled yet controlled feel to it
