Below are two items I "painted" this week for Paint Party Friday.
I played around with Melt Art Beeswax and Country Lane color
squares (from A. C. Moore's) along with some alcohol inks, distress
inks, and Caran d'Ache Neocolor II water soluble crayons.

I guess I am very conscious of the weather since my family in
Central Arkansas has been dodging tornados. We have also had
some really heavy weather this week.
Did you see my watercolor columbine? Here it is again:

ReplyDeleteI love 'your sun after the rain'
ReplyDeleteBravo on all your works, they are wonderful.
The tornadoes are very scary.
I hope your family is safe.
Your watercolors are awesome. Great job on the flowers, very pretty.:)
ReplyDeleteI love to see the variety of your work, and although each approach is quite different, every painting carries your individual style and says that Faye has painted it. I like them all but especially the first two and am fascinated by your first Storm abstract piece. It would be interesting to know a little more about how you created it, as I don't know the materials you used.
ReplyDeleteThank you for the lovely comment you left on PPF about my piece being featured.
The columbine is stunning! I especially love the Thunderstorm piece, which is wonderfully expressive. I almost can't stop looking at it! The palette is wonderfully atmospheric, especially with that unexpected salmon.
ReplyDeleteLovely delicate painting of the Columbine. We have had terrible flash floods here in Baltimore - a street collapsed and lots of cars fell down over the side. I really love all the grays inThunderstorm and the cheerful colors in Sun after the Rain.Happy PPF! Emma x
ReplyDeleteAn amazing amount of work -- I love the diversity of your talent. The mixed media pieces are engaging and the flowers pop from their backgrounds. Love the contrast of colors.
ReplyDeleteLove these Faye :-)
ReplyDeleteI enjoyed your post today. Thunderstorm took my breath away. Quite lovely. And I did not see your lovely columbine before. It also is stunning. Speaking of stunning, is this a new profile photo with a hat? Very nice.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful paintings! I am not sure what Color Blocks are, so must go check it out. The result is fabulous. Your columbine is my favorite... the ones in our garden are just starting to throw their heads up. Happy PPF!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful creations! Especially enjoy your mixed media art!
ReplyDeletei love your abstract thunderstorm painting! great mix of medias and colors. Also loved the water color pieces!

The columbine is my favourite with the contrasting green against the orange flower. There is a lot of depth to your background. Thanks for sharing.
