Wanting to create a greater connection between what I am feeling and the paper I am painting on I thought by using my fingers to apply the paint might be the way:
Finger Feelings #1, Gouache on paper, 42x59cm.I have never tried to paint this way in a very long time. Not since my mother said "Take that paintbrush oot o' yer mooth and eat yer Rusks"!
Lots of fun, but very messy. I used gouache because I thought it would be less harmful to my delicate skin :o)
The intention was to paint negative, say anxiety or depression. Could be.
Something more positive:
Finger Feelings #2, Gouache on paper, 42x59cm.I don't think the yellow is clean enough to represent something happy. And it's far too agitated without being light-hearted.
Worth a try, but not what I am looking for.
