Catchup - 30 Little Paintings no 5, 6, 7

Number 5, 6, 7 of Thirty Little Paintings by Justine

Fell off the painting wagon. Trying to catch up and get back on :)

As a creative exercise, thru the month of January I will be posting 1 small painting or drawing, ATC / trading card size (2.5 x 3.5 inches), each day. I'm doing this across all my social media accounts (same painting). 

Just for fun I'll be choosing 1 person each day (starting Jan 2) to receive the previous day's painting from the people who like, comment or share my posts about my artwork from the previous day.

So share, like, or comment about my artwork and you'll be included in the group of names I choose from tomorrow to receive this little guy. This is totally unscientific, I'll just write the names on little pieces of paper, throw them into a tupperware and pick one. If your name is picked, of course I will need your address to mail it to you. I will message you.

Dandelion Experiment - 30 Little Paintings no3

Number 3 of Thirty Little Paintings by Justine

Here is today's little painting, an experiment of the watercolor technique called wet-on-wet. The paper is soaked in water and then paint is applied tot he wet paper so the colors bleed into each other. I know some people hate dandelions in their lawn, but I have always liked them. They are cheerful, resilient, with a promise of a wish.
