Instagram post 2119838222629453390_4721333 I'm super pleased to share that my gouache painting has been accepted and is on display in the Fine Arts building at the Minnesota State Fair! @mnstatefair ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ I began with some delicate delphinium stalks and contrasted them against a dark blue background. Where possible, I left some of the previous layers showing and adjusted values & color with thin washes of paint. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ This painting was done with acrylic gouache from @liquitexofficial on an 14”x20” sheet of 140lbs. Saunders Waterford colorpress watercolor paper from, @st_cuthberts_mill. • • • • #pleinair #pleinairgouache #artist #art #color #colorful #colorfulart #acrylic #acrylicgouache #liquitexacrylicgouache #worksonpaper #painting #watermedia #watermediapaintings #watermediaartists #gouache #gouacheartist #gouacheonpaper #gouachesketch #gouachepaint #gouachepainting #gouachestudy #gouachpleinair #goucheflowerpainting #mnstatefairfinearts #fluidwatercolorpaper #minneapolispleinair #saunderswaterford #delphinium #pinkflowers

They looked a bit more like a country rose with the yellow centers.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ This painting was done with acrylic gouache from @liquitexofficial on an 9”x12” sheet of watercolor paper mounted on illustration board. •⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ •⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ •⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ •⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #pleinair #pleinairgouache #artist #create #color #colorful #colorfulart #acrylic #acrylicgouache #liquitexacrylicgouache #worksonpaper #painting #watermedia #watermediapaintings #watermediaartists #gouache #gouacheartist #gouacheonpaper #gouachesketch #gouachepaint #gouachepainting #gouachestudy #gouachpleinair #gouchelandscapepainting #minneapolispleinair #peonies #peonypainting #pinkflowers #peonyart

Instagram post 2077120690085386540_4721333 For these roses, I began with an underpainting of brown ink washes. Once the washes of waterproof ink had dried, I layered in gouache layers that had been thinned with water to adjust values, color, and shapes. Finally, I went in with thicker layers of opaque paint. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Where possible, I left some of the previous layers showing. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ This painting was done with acrylic gouache from @liquitexofficial on an 8”x10” sheet of 300lbs. watercolor paper from Fluid Watercolor Paper. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ •⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ •⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ •⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ •⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #pleinair #pleinairgouache #artist #create #color #colorful #colorfulart #acrylic #acrylicgouache #liquitexacrylicgouache #worksonpaper #painting #watermedia #watermediapaintings #watermediaartists #gouache #gouacheartist #gouacheonpaper #gouachesketch #gouachepaint #gouachepainting #gouachestudy #gouachpleinair #gouchelandscapepainting #speedballart #fluidwatercolorpaper #minneapolispleinair #roses #rosepainting #yellowflowers
