Abstracts with visiting Katya

We had a guest here last week, Katya returned for a visit after almost 4 years away.  As per our tradition, we held an abstract painting night, and boy, was it ever productive! We each finished 2-3 pieces by the end of the night, and the results were mostly impressive (I'm saying that because I'm not proud of a couple of my own pieces...).



Newcomer Lyndon surprised us all (and probably even himself) with his abstract painting skills (and/or his skills at reproducing tricks learned on YouTube).




Nicole and Lily came up with very interesting colour combinations and compositions:



Daniel finger-painted, and had us guessing about his subject matter until the end (it's a dragon; some of us thought of Smaug).




Curtis proved he has a knack for handling paint too!

I have plans for Curtis' painting of our Purple Van (aka Maroon Van, aka The Mystery Machine), which I hope to share in an upcoming post.


Finally, some close-ups of a few pieces we did using thin paint dripped on canvas and shaken ("fluid art", is it called? whatever it is, it's fun to play with!).
