#abstractbird

Abstract oystercatcher in acrylic. Really want to play around with abstract a bit more, and had another shot with acrylic - while I like how it turned out, I am still in a constant state of stress trying to paint everything I want while the paint is literally drying on the brush!

My #abstractbird #originalartwork inspired by #birds around me. #fineartprints #animalprints #giclee #mblayers #etsystore #midcenturyart #midcentueybirds #mcmwallart (at Palm Beach, Florida) https://www.instagram.com/p/Coa72xfuoYx/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Terrible shiny photo! Went over the bright colours and pushed them back. Trying to combine abstract and realism somewhat - didn't completely work, but I still quite like it! One more layer to go once this has dried.

Day 46/100 #the100dayproject I’m continuing to play with combining techniques and themes in my current #watercolorsketchbook For this one, I combined the theme of birds with the technique of #transparentlayering and using shapes found in my environment. I’ve been collecting pics on my walks of random shapes created by cracks in the concrete, dry dirt, peeling paint, and tree bark. I knew I wanted to make a bird, so I searched through all the pics (swipe to see where I found each shape) and came up with this #abstractbird I’m not sure I’m done with this one. I’m considering adding some collage pieces or pencil details. If I do, I’ll show it in a later post. I also wish the transparency was a little clearer, but what do you do? Just keep moving forward right?!? #playtolearnlearntoplay #creativeplay #watercolors #watercolorpainting #learningtowatercolor #learningtoillustrate #journeytobeanauthorillustrator #abstractart #watercolorart #watercolorbirds #painting #playingwithwatercolors #usingenvironmentalshapes #sketchbook https://www.instagram.com/p/CbvMQ99LaYT/?utm_medium=tumblr
