1)Special Thanks 2) Washes

Hi, Friends, thank you for "warm" cheers! Finally, my cold seems to calm down, (although my voice still does not come up!) Ah, I can sit well. Phew!

Oh, I haven't uploaded washes for months! (*I have to admit picture book projects have occupied me so much.) Very thick and strong colours I made and used for washes. I played with colours and observed how they would "swim around" on paper. Yes, these techniques are for my ongoing picture book project, too. 

Accident. I made a bit texture on the paper below. It, indeed, not bad! So, I'll explore textures and patterns, onward. When I make interesting ones, I'll upload them. Friends, let's have fun!
OK! I'll take a rest well. Maybe, I'll listen to string instrument music.
Luckily, we'll have Queen's Birthday (Sunday) long weekend. 
I just want to say "Special thank you" for anyone who has lifted me up so much! 
See you soon.
Friends, Happy Painting!

  10. Your washes are joyful!! As always you bring joy to all of us. I really enjoyed your last post too. I am excited for you that you are embarking on a new project, and have found a mentor. I too have recently joined a firm (in my day job) where I finally - after many years - have an enthusiastic, knowledgeable and experienced mentor. What a magnificent experience! I have never been so happy. Honesly I hadn't thought it possible. Suddenly life has been breathed into what was formerly stale. You are so right. I feel like your washes! :)

    1. Hi, Polly, thank u very much! Sure, you, too, can enjoy wash. We are all "master chef" for colours. I chose contrasted colours to follow the paints' movements. Good materials are the first step for chefs to make a nice dish. Let's have fun!
