Problem yesterday meant my black ink hand painting did not work.
I had five canvas boards.
I was going to do some black Chinese in painting on them using my hands.
Problem.
It was 29° C.
And so the black Chinese ink dried on my hands in the nanosecond it took me to transfer my hand to the canvas board.
Tried every which way....
I did do some stuff on the canvas boards, but it is not finished and not what I had intended to do.
I did manage to do some paintings in my sketchbook with the black ink on my hand.
Next problem was trying to get the ink off my hands because it had been on it for so long, in that heat, as I was painting for quite awhile with my hands.
When I was a child, I used to have those delicate black or white lace gloves. Do you remember them? I could do with a black pair now.....
And so, my creative is one of the paintings I did in my sketchbook with the black ink hand painting, and also with the blue shop towel I was using to mop everything up. I was getting painted everywhere, and I turned that into a painting implement because there was so much ink on it.....
Waste not want not...
It was thunderstorms and rain, but now the sun has come out and I am going out there to paint again, I enjoyed yesterday afternoon even though every painting and idea I had was a mistake, I could see ways of using it and having fun with it, but it is not what I intended to do. I should never have an intention when painting because it never works out and always goes badly wrong. It only works (usually)/when I just leap onto the blank page with free abandon....
Now, have your best day.
Leap into the unknown with free abandon...go into and with the flow...
