RE: How to bring back joy into your art - an experiment
As well as trying something new with the actual painting, I love how you also changed your position to paint. Swapping hands, using a different brush or changing how it's held, anything to jolt the familiar patterns can make our Creative Muse happier. 🦋
Thank you for stopping by 🌷I directly looked at your profile and your header (I hope it is called so) is amazing!!! The photo with all the petals is so beautiful <3
Swapping hands is a great idea, I cannot imagine what I would paint with my left hand. I tried for a while to write with my left hand, but this is a huge challenge for me... I will definitively try this (and hope my muse does not vomit 😁)
Yes, I call it a header or it can be called a cover image. So pleased you like it. I'm wanting to change it to a drawing of blue butterflies ~ But need to do the drawings first. 😊
I'm left handed but was forced to write with my right hand as a kid when I broke my arm. So now I can write with either. But it's FAR easier to use what is your birth blessed hand.
I used to teach drawing ~ Another training exercise is to draw in space. Just trace around whatever is in front of you with your finger. Can't make any mistakes and it can get your left hand used to the idea of being used to draw. 🦋
