Treetop Trail on Paper

Treetop Trail on Paper

by nancy | Posted in: Art, Nature, Parenting | 0

  Tonight I tried to turn a bit of my forest immersion into art. You see, my ideal weekend routine would go like this: outdoor adventure, art, write. This hasn’t been happening much this year, since I’ve been juggling work, … Continued

Forest watercolour lesson

by nancy | Posted in: Art, Creative, Nature, Parenting | 0

You might think that as an artist, my kids benefit from lots of art instruction at home. But we don’t have very much time to do art together! I thought of an idea to try while I was commuting to … Continued

It’s been a very full year! Shortly after revamping my website, I returned to work full-time in February. Between work, childcare, housework, and many hikes, I’ve been able to do a handful of paintings, but I almost forgot I had … Continued

Insta Art Series – Painting 9: fail.

by DelightFilledArt | Posted in: Art, Nature, Photography | 0

Painting 9, as it turns out, was originally painting 2. I just did not like it and have been trying to salvage it this entire time. I didn’t like how it almost looked like a flag, with the horizontal colour … Continued

Insta Art Series – Painting 7

by DelightFilledArt | Posted in: Art, Creative, Nature, Photography | 0

This was a fun painting process for me. I really liked the simplicity that I started with – the almost black and white photos of misty, bare forests. The rich brown and turquoise. But to fit in with my series, … Continued

Insta Art Series – Painting 5

by DelightFilledArt | Posted in: Art, Creative, Nature, Photography | 0

This painting is packed with texture and fun details. I got some more photos printed, because I went on a couple of really foggy, misty hikes after I printed the first batch. The funny thing is that in that gap … Continued

Photography painting series – the story behind the artwork

by DelightFilledArt | Posted in: Art, Creative, Nature, Photography | 4

It’s been about three weeks since I thought of a concept for an abstract mixed-media art series, and now that I’m making some progress, I wanted to describe my concept in a bit more depth here. I expect that this … Continued

Tree watercolour

by DelightFilledArt | Posted in: Art, Creative, Nature | 0

Similar to my last post, here is another watercolour sketch. I tried to capture the energy that I find present in the forest. When I walk there and experience God’s creation, I feel rejuvenated. Again I enjoyed being able to … Continued
