A few years ago I painted a buck silhouette. I love this simple painting and thought it would be fun to share it again.
Happy Sunday, friends! π
I sketched the buck first and then dropped in different colors filling in most of the space. I allowed the colors to mix and mingle and didn’t fuss with it. I tapped on my brush toΒ created a little fun spatter.
While the painting was still damp (not too wet/ not too dry), I sprinkled on some salt. As I recall, I used kosher salt which is flaky and creates these nice large blooms.
After it completely dried, I brushed off the salt to find a beautiful pattern.
I hope you are inspired to create art and do more of what you love.
Until next time, share a smile and shine on!

I like how you did this by creating an outline of a buck… would be fun to try with other shapes, like cookie cutters. Thanks for the inspiration Patty! π¨βοΈβ¨
