Painting

Abstract Sketchbook Idea & VIDEO

Every now and then, I try out some abstract art ideas. I stayed within my Kuretake watercolor paints, so the color palette coordination was easy! I have a video at the bottom of the post. It isn’t hard to paint a bunch of shapes, so I hope that you give it a try. I loved how it turned out so much that I created a surface pattern design for fabric and wallpaper.

If you are looking for sketchbook ideas, geometric, simple shapes may be what you should try next! When dry, you can doodle on them in black, white or gold. Also, try some mark making with your acrylic paint pens! Fun. 🙂
