tulips on black

tulips on black

a project at art, draw an outline of the subject, cut it out then stick on painted black canvas, then paint the subject, giving a 3D effect, going to paint some dark foilage effect at the bottom to finish off i think, but love the colour on a dramatic back drop

Really lovely San, you did a really good job, I thought it had all been painted! San, how about a pure white daisy on a black background, for us daisy nutty people?

PS Hope you don't mind the suggestion!

thanx helen i love daisys to, i may do one when i have time, my printer stopped working today so i can print any pictures off, you trace the shape then transfere onto a stiff paper then stick it on canvas then paint the details, cant understand it as only blue has run out and i cant even use black to print documents ;o((

Well done Sandra.

Have we had a surge of energy from the sun, causing faults in our electrical goods? Printers, computers, cookers and also my washing machine all seem to have gone on the blink!
