Dashing Sandpiper/ oil on canvas board/ 6" x 6"/ SOLD
I painted this on a canvas board and followed Julie Ford Oliver's (link) suggestion to "fracture" more gently. I think that disrupting the edges of a subject by scratching or fracturing adds a lot of movement to a painting. It is fun to do. If you are interested, you can get Julie's art byte about her fracturing technique at Daily Paintworks.
Sue, This turned out great and it looks like you had a good time painting it. Thanks for letting us know about Julie's technique. I will be checking out her ArtByte video.
Thanks, Lydia. You will love the art byte and this method is a lot of fun. Sometimes, I think it can rescue an otherwise dullish painting. I learn a lot from Julie's blog. She is a great teacher.
