AAA (No. 15): Purple Whimsy ATCs

 

 

 

This was my final art project for Amateur Art in August, August 30th. It was for a free themed Artist Trading Cart (or ATC) swap from Swap-bot.com and I was experimenting with my watercolors. Believe it or not, both cards were made using only one color. The color just happened to change from a deep purple to a purplish pink the more you added water to it (which I found fascinating).

What Medium: Watercolor paper, watercolor paints, paintbrush, glue, buttons

 

Estimated Time: Less than an hour

 

Title: Purple Whimsy 1 & 2

 

Big thanks again to Katelikestocreate over at Laptop on the Ironing Board for hosting Amateur Art in August! I hope next year I’ll be allowed to participate again, as it really has opened my eyes up to how much I love painting.
