Hi everyone! All the Austin weather folk have us boxed in with fog. Good thing Sheila & I took advantage of this past weekendâs unbelievably nice weather đ But the change in weather hasnât slowed us down much, lol! Yesterday we hit Goldâs Gym for a SilverSneakers class, delivered a replacement art piece & picked up two at one of Creative Art Societyâs Venues, Urban Hair, then made a quick low-traffic detour to Michaelâs and picked up a watercolor kit and watercolor paper pad for the year year old. He seems to have a real affinity for the medium, as seen by the expression on his face, bottom of review â€ïž
The afternoon I spent catching up on my various in-progress 6×6 watercolor acrylic wash experiments.
Some have been a disaster, so the good news is I can experiment even more freely with them đ This was esp true of an attempt to recreate watercolor effects just via acrylics on a black gessoâd surface. Not a pretty picture, lol!
Iâm letting a new mix of Goldenâs Soft Tar Gel & 20% water settle to release air bubbles then gonna pour it onto what I hope will be a satisfying solution to this one project. The masking tape âwallâ is an idea I got via one of Nancy Reynerâs many acrylic posts. If successful, may mean more of these; weâll see!
Among fiddling with about 5 6×6 projects, I also cut down foam board to mount 4 new 12×16 prints I hope to take to the Old Bakery & Emporium tomorrow (Wed). My aim is to set up and paint for the 1st time since early last year!
Thisâll be Playtimeâs and Mount Mansfield Sunriseâs first appearance at the Old Bakery đ
But first, after our morning walk, so then first, lol! We hope to see Daniel Craigâs Knifed Out movie before lunch. Itâll also be our 1st going-out-to movie since 2018 when we took the then 4 year old to an animated film! It was so cold in the theatre we almost had to leave, so weâre taking our coats w/us, even though itâs warmed into the 60s, lol!
Finally, my goal, blog post wise, is still to get some semblance of a post on my various projects. I wanted to do one big post, but itâd be too big I think. So Iâll pick something to focus on. Hopefully đ
Enjoy everyone! Thanks so much!
