Cool Analagous Color mini artwork using painted paper:

Spring mini artwork using painted paper: 

Here are some recently painted papers I created using leftover paint. And below is the mini artwork I created using the purple, pink, and green sheet. 

I added Posca, acrylic paint pen, and colored pencil to turn a beautiful painted paper into a mini masterpiece that I love so much. 😊 I love pulling artworks out of painted papers by playing with intensifying values and adding marks and texture. 

Winter Fun With Leftover Paint: 

I had so much fun playing around with leftover paint on scraps of paper. I've taken to using construction paper for underneath my paintings to protect my table and then turning those papers into collage papers by painting on leftover paint after the initial painting is complete. I also had some scrap papers around and more paint, so just kept going until I ran out of paint. :) I can't wait to use these in a collage. 

Using leftover paint in my sketchbooks: 

I love the beautiful greens that this leftover paint created as I played with ways to apply it to sketchbook and repurposed book pages. I especially love the tiled page where I kept returning to the palette to mix more and create use new colors over and over again. 

 

I'm starting to work back into my leftover paint backgrounds. Here I used paint markers, a fountain pen, and metallic pens.

First Post:

I love getting the most out of my art supplies. Here are some sketchbook spreads I prepared using leftover paint and a brayer as well as some collage papers I created.
