blobimals

I have a feeling you are going to be seeing a lot more of these blobimals inspired by artist Carla Sonheim on the blog.  They are a lot of fun to make.

Kind of like searching the clouds for things, but with watercolor blobs.

After 'scrumbling' a watercolor blob with two primary colors of their choice, we added a bit of high flow white acrylic paint to it while still wet.

That process alone is fascinating!

Then a quick dry with an old blowdryer I have on hand and the artist is off to the races to find an imaginary animal in the blob.

Such a great way to exercise one's imagination!

I gave the option of using pen and ink or colored pencils to add detail.

This 12 year old artist was so happy with her imaginary animal in the end.

Stay tune for more blobimals to come.  I know each and every artist at the studio is anxious to give one a try.
