My Artistic Life Challenge #4 (of 9) SUMMARY: Get Inspired by Texture! Take a walk and collect leaves, twigs, rocks, berries, etc. (anything that has a neat texture that you want to play with). Then make a grid in your art journal (or on a piece of paper) and make imprints of your found objects.
I used old sheet music as background, lightly coated with white acrylic paint. I used a leaf stem to dot the brown lines, and then made imprints of leaves and grass pods.

This experiment turned out so well — I really like the leaf imprint in the upper lefthand corner.
What a great idea – I love all the textures you created, very beautiful!
Interesting textures, lovely choice of colours.I was inspired by your work and made something with the same technique you used for Serenata. Posted it at my place with due credit given. :)http://keepitsimplemakeitgreat.blogspot.com/2009/11/aedm-2009-day-08-inspiration.html
I love this idea. I love anything with texture. I'll be borrowing this idea soon.
Thanks so much for playing in this fun art challenge, Marina! : )
