Hibiscus (YUPO)

[Chief]

1/2 sheet YUPO.....W&N w/c........I took a lot of artistic licence on the leaves and the blossom too for that matter......but what the heck it was fun painting it.........Chief

Wonderful riot of color Chief. How did you do the lace? Splatter through it?

[gmarie]

Chief, beautiful blossoms; I too am interested in the lace; "we" costume painted "our" motorcycle tank a rich metallic blue & black using lace I had left over from my wedding gown (that exact lace pattern). Artist's are fun, aren't we!

[Southern Style]

Chief...creative and pretty..whatever technique you used! Those colors are so bright and cheerful!

And Gladys..that motorcycle sounds beautiful!

Hey Chief,
Why get the artistic license if you can't use it!? You've used it well here. I'd probably crop it to a more square format when I frame it...I like that format so usually gravitate toward it..
nice job.

What the heck - exactly - this works great - who care if you used artisitic licence - you had fun and that is the main thing.

Thanks Pat, Marcia, Gladys, Tina and Mike......the curtain was done with one of those two ounce plastic spray bottles that cost around a buck........Chief

I love this. The composition works well, and the colours are great. What did you use for the pink? I tried to paint some fuschias a while back and struggled with the pink.

Chief, Very nice job on this! Great colors! I'm going to have to get out my yupo again...so much to do. Nice!!!

[KathyJB]

I would like to apply for your artistic license, did you make a duplicate?
hehehe Love this, I think I know how you got that last effect, yupo takes stencils and stamps better than any other surface I have ever used, great job with that Chief, course you have the advantage of the squirrel tail...
that said, such an wonderful painting, bravo!!!

[Chief]

Thanks Mark.......I used W&N Opera Rose and a bit of Quin. Red....

Thanks Joan......YUPO is fun to paint on....

Thanks Kat........yup Wagstaff''s tail is my secret weapon for sure....when all else fails I depend on him. Yes Yupo is wonderful for taking impressions and the like. I'm constantly trying to think up ways to take advantage of it. ..... Chief

Wow Chief - That lace is wonderful!!! I'm taking notes here because I just got a couple of sheets of yupo from one of the art suppliers here in the UK - but I have not been brave enough to try it yet!

Thanks for sharing.
