Fun art tips! Brave experiments!

So for this month’s art tips, we got new BARVE steps! Click the link to find more!
New Year, new steps! I’m challenging myself to create with new colors, and finding that adding colors that are not always making sense is AWESOME! Hope you’ll enjoy the art blog 😊

My fun tip is use all colors and what we have at home. Art should be fun and accessible. The trick is this: leave colors side by side, so each can have its own glory shiny moment. No sharing is caring here 😉.

Tip 1:

And for a useful way to create with them: I will tell you a secret. I usually use just a small flat brush for 90% of what I paint at home. Just 1 cm. That’s all you need. The tip is for trees. The flat surface is for sky. The fingers (YES! I use fingers!) are for touch ups. Just be careful for the oil in our hands, natural oil, as it doesn’t blend with the water in the paint.

Tip 2:

Wash your brush and dry it between colors. make sure it’’s really DRY. Otherwise water make your hues less strong as they spread with the water.

If it doesn’t make sense, keep following me on facebook and see the posts and steps on enxt week’s details and tips ;)

The picture here is an experiment I had with colors. If we blend them it gets bown, but side by side it’s blue, re, and green. Love it!

Happy weekend!

Colorfully yours
