As Li-Sa and I both enjoyed this emotion music challenge, we decided to repeat it this month but this time using a different medium and different music. I have been a bit slack due to having a overseas visitor but did finish just a little bit later than normal. I decided to use water colours and listen to mediation music by Sacred Earth - Pamanyungun. I was going to use blue/green colours but once I started putting washes of colour on felt like I had to use more earth colours of brown and green, then the red happened and a tree with blue leaves appeared! Maybe it was the name of the group Sacred Earth that made me think of these colours. I only used cartridge paper - much prefer to use watercolour paper and will try and get some larger sheets for next time I want to use the washy effect of watercolours. I do enjoy using the watercolours as I love the flow of colours into each other.
Ooh! I like this one a lot! I love that bleeding effect and the earthy tones, I definitely agree with the choice in music having an impact on your work! I'm the same, I prefer water colour paper, I think it's easier to control the medium. I also notice the quality of paper changes things too.
