Cool Fun on a very hot Day

This background was painted on card stock using Lumiere paints

and other acrylics paints, plus 2 of my favorite stamps.

   

Here I have used one of the filters in the Photoshop  Elements.

And yet another filter

Another face in watercolors and watercolor pencils.

I played around with petals and leaves, a folded card stock,

a concrete surface and a good hammer. Pounded flowers

is such a fun, spontaneous art form. Flowers used are marigolds, 

marigold leaves, tomato leaves, buddleia, several varieties of coleus,

petunia petals, salvia petals and barberry leaves.

Another pounded flower creation except this one is on

watercolor paper and no buddleia.

This is my entry in the Paint Party Friday challenge.
