This started off innocently enough as an abstract and then drips of black paint covered a yellow shape and once I saw these guys I couldn't unsee them. I know this is weird but it's also kind of freeing to go with the flow. I did try to keep some sense of abstraction. Acrylic on paper 10x10

This is so lovely Donna and I love how it came about. So soft and the bees

The abstract is nicely done. It supports the flowers nicely.

Jade and Wayne, thanks. It’s fun to play around without any destination.

the red flower that sort of breaks thru the mist gives depth and a point of focus and for me makes the painting.

Nice! Looks like an encaustic.

Donna, lovely, soft misty and dreamy.
Is it really possible to paint this soft w./ acrylics?

 

[Donna T]

Bongo, I was hoping that one flower would stand out. Thanks.

I’ve never done encaustic, Bart, but it seems very interesting! Thanks.

Grapes, I use thin glazes that I can either wipe back for soft effects or build on. Dissolving dried paint with rubbing alcohol also helps with certain effects. Thank you.
