Abstract Painting

Katya and I got together a few months ago (October 2012) to work on a painting together.  We sat down with our watercolour and acrylic paints (not to mention a few drinks...), and worked on a large piece of canvas (27x35 inches).  We each had our own corners to paint on, but eventually we met in the middle and even ran over each other's work.


This was such a fun exercise!  I recommend it a million times.  We call the piece "Waterfall".  Katya's characteristic painting style is the long strokes, and mine are the dotty splotches.   Our colour preferences are evident too (Katya:  purple, turquoise, blue;  Michelle: red, green, black), but they blend well together overall.  I glued bits of paper (some of it metallic) to the piece as well, to give it more texture.
