In this video, I dive into a colorful artistic adventure with watercolors, stencils, and Mungyo Oil Pastels. I started with a big abstract piece that didn't quite resonate with me, so I decided to embrace the creative process and split it into two smaller pieces that I ended up absolutely loving. Join me as I share my journey of turning a minor setback into a creative breakthrough, exploring different techniques along the way. It's all about the process and experimentation, and I can't wait to share it with you!

I cut some of my "not so great" pieces up last night. It makes a huge difference! I turned several marginal pieces into lots of really cute mini pieces. I don't have a punch, so I just cut them into 2"x 2" squares for art prompt cards. They are adorable! It also occurred to me that the mini-pieces would be nice little gifts to take to the nursing home to pass out, especially if they were cut into cute shapes. You could put a positive message or affirmation on the back or dress them up with a little ribbon.
@2lilowlsstudio
@2lilowlsstudio 11 месяцев назад
It really makes all the difference when you cut them up and then you love the pieces instead of being disappointed at the larger piece. Turns everyday into a good paint day! I love the idea of giving them out with positive messages on them! Thank you! 🥰

Hey Denise...I was inspired to create some abstracts this week, but got stuck/blocked with the "next color" to lay down. So, I put my "Denise Thinking Cap" on...and grabbed the color cubes in search of the colors I had already put down on my paper, hoping I would find a card(s) that would help push me over the stuck spot I was in. Wouldn't you know it, it was like a fun creative treasure hunt...and I found multiple options that kept me up very late...creating with joy and excitement that I couldn't stop! Just thought I would share that idea just in case other creative people have abstract pieces not completed because of feeling stuck! Also, quick question, is Yes! paste the best adhesive for adhering the cut up pieces, or are there other options you trust...that I may already have in my art studio?
@2lilowlsstudio
@2lilowlsstudio 11 месяцев назад
Love that idea! It is like a little treasure hunt! You can use thick matte medium, or any other glues you have on hand. The thing with cutting up art and glueing it down to something else - is it is thick - so the thin matte mediums just don't work very well for me. I'd experiment with all your glues you have on hand. I do really love the Yes! paste - that is like a frosting consistency and works fantastic on these thicker papers. Thank you! 🥰

My six year old granddaughter and I did some art totems and abstracts this weekend. She chose the color palette...and Grandma went along with it. 1. Talking with her...kept me from over thinking on mine...kept mine much looser. 2. Go with the weird color palette! Again...kept me from over thinking!

@colleenmckeeman1342
@colleenmckeeman1342 8 месяцев назад
I think those turned out really nice. I have one question with regard to your sizing and cutting up them up. . You were marking it within the staging mate frame, you then cut on the line not leaving anything extra for mounting within a frame. Were you not intending to frame it, therefore, it didn’t matter, or is it going to be used in a different way or application?
@2lilowlsstudio
@2lilowlsstudio 8 месяцев назад
I didn’t frame these. I do cut a little bigger if I’m framing so they have some space behind the mat. 😊
@zoewhite7705
@zoewhite7705 11 месяцев назад
Beautiful as always! But I always wonder, why do you cut around the inside the mount rather than outside it? There's northing left to overlap the back of the mount, for it to stick to, if that makes sense. How do you then mount it?
@2lilowlsstudio
@2lilowlsstudio 11 месяцев назад
I usually cut a little larger than the mount. If I cut to the outside - I might be loosing a few inches that could have been another piece I cut out. Just my preference. 😊
@Noniof3
@Noniof3 11 месяцев назад
Love the way this turned out! You’ve probably answered this before but when you use oil pastels on top of your painting, do you spray with a fixative when you’re finished? Which spray do you use? Thanks.
@2lilowlsstudio
@2lilowlsstudio 11 месяцев назад
Really depends on what I use on the paper as to if I finish it with spray. If it has soft pastels or oil pastels - then I use the Sennelier fixative for pastels. Otherwise, you have issues with the pastels (soft pastels shed and oil pastels tend to never really dry). If I don't use anything like that - I don't usually use a finish spray. I store them in clear art sleeves or frame them.

Thank you! 🥰 I keep most of the things I paint since I make videos... I store them in plastic art sleeves. Sometimes I need them to photograph and I use them as samples. Some I have framed in my house. I have given a few as gifts. My goal isn't to sell art - so I have not put them up for sale since I might need them again for something.

Thanks, Denise. I’ve been creating these abstracts in a Bristol paper sketchbook. I suppose I could spray or put wax paper between pages or use a different medium for mark making. I don’t have Neocolors 1-are they sticky?
@2lilowlsstudio
@2lilowlsstudio 11 месяцев назад
They are oil pastel, so they are a little sticky.
