Eight little works in progress, on the wainscoting above the radiator at the Friends of Calligraphy retreat. I’ll start adding color after lunch!

This is the 11th finished piece I’ve made at the Friends of Calligraphy retreat. It speaks of hope to me–what do you see in it?
6″x6″ watercolor, Ziller Glossy Black ink, QoR Light Dimensional Ground on canvas panel.

6″x6″ work in progress. Adding color to those grooved lines is really close, meticulous work, which I’ve spent the past few years rebelling against doing, but apparently it’s not the detail work that I hate, it’s all the planning ahead. If the detail work is improvisational, then I actually kind of enjoy it. It’s very meditative. (Though I confess I’m more likely to be willing to do it on a 6″x6″ than a 24″x24″…) #workinprogress #wip #artinprocess #jazzart #spontaneousart #improvisation #intuitivepainting #improvisationalart #artistsofinstagram #art #mixedmedia #abstract #abstractart #abstractexpressionism #creativity #creative365 #creativeprocess #creativesandbox #creativeeveryday #livingacreativelife #artspark #dailypainter #dailypainting #watercolor #watercolorground #creativeworldchanger

One of the great things about retreats is that you just get so much more creating done! I’m lucky if I complete one painting a day at home. I’ve got a little stash of pieces piling up here!

The heater is blaring in the scriptorium, which made the QoR Light Dimensional Ground dry way more quickly than I like. Bleeding ink and crumbly grooves resulted, so I shall choose to like them on this work in progress.
There are no mistakes in art, only opportunities.
