Thank you Lois. These turned out really well. Louise is an inspiration, and so are you. I learnt the cling film technique from you and use it often 😁 But this is a great way to let go and get paint on paper. Thanks again......Alioban
I so enjoyed that. Thank you so much I just feel you feel good and like you really want to try to use different colors in and change shapes and all that kind of thing thank you God bless.
I love this Lois, it’s really interesting and your colours are beautiful. I tried this after watching Louise Fletcher a while ago now and found it very freeing 😊
This was so much fun to watch so looking forward to experiencing the freedom. I have tried a similar process. The challenge is taking the demo piece forward. Thank you for sharing your thoughts and ideas as always
This was great to watch and looks a really fun way to free up creativity, thank you for sharing Lois, it's just what I need to loosen up my paintings, I can't wait to have a go 😊
Hi Lois. There it is in all it openness, "something and nothing". No boats, yet I perceive a storm closing around me at sea. With dark and ominous clouds passing overhead from behind, that tell of threatening wind to increase an already tumultuous sea. That's just the middle one on the right. All the other have their own character that, as you well know will differ from person to person as their individual mood and perspective that talks to them in what they see., This has to rank as the most expressive act of random free speech I've seen as paintings. I'm so glad it's not just me that has faced a blank page, and drawn a blank, as to what to do with it. In the past I've forced a painting from thin air, as there was no motivation, and have come up with some utter rubbish. So bad that I would have reused the paper in the loo if it wasn't so rough. That being said, some of those times have produced remarkable results that have been firm favourites within my circle of people I said I'd let you know about the results of a visit with an eye specialist. Changed my mind.... Not really. I came away with a new hope. He told that there is indeed a lot of damage to the cells in the jelly. But it can be treated in due course. I don't know if the damage can be reversed, but with treatment and the right lifestyle, the deterioration can be stopped. Than it's timing an eye test to get the most effective glasses. As blood sugar levels fluctuate, so does the clarity of my vision. That makes timing quite relevant. Coming away with an incorrect prescription isn't best, and can cause more harm. Now I wait for an appointment with a consultant for all the treatment, and best advice. So for now ,I keep hold of my brushed and my camera. There you have it Lois, that's as much as I know. Thanks for sharing such an "eye" opening exercise in freedom creating from a blank mind. Be well sweet lady. TTFN.
Thanks Graham, I'm glad you enjoyed the demo, and especially glad that you have some positive treatment options, hopefully things will work out better than you had feared. Take care 😊
I have taken Louise's courses she is amazing. I will defo try this. I would paint right across the whole paper as one painting rather than painting each panel as an individual painting. The surprise is when you remove the tape.
Fantastic! So inspiring! I have been feeling stuck for a while now, have hit a plateau in my learning process and this exercise will be the next thing i do. i love experimental painting, but have gotten bogged down in wanting to end up with a winning painting. This process you’ve shared will be just the ticket to get my spontaneity moving again ….the key being not worrying about the finished product and just having fun. Thank you so much. You have been an inspiration to me since i started painting about 3 years ago.❤
Hi Lois! This is great! I have an unrelated question, but maybe you can answer? What do you find is the best way to apply masking fluid? Brush? I need some assistance!;-) Thank you so much! Much love!💖
Thank you for sharing this, I enjoyed it very much!

Looks beautiful Lois. Thku for sharing.
So glad it inspired you!
Great exploration.... Try printing it's high resolution snaps on textured canvas paper just to get a feel
I have taken Louise's courses she is amazing. I will defo try this. I would paint right across the whole paper as one painting rather than painting each panel as an individual painting. The surprise is when you remove the tape.
Great!❤❤

Thanks Kate, I use a brush to apply masking fluid
I will definitely try this! I often get blocked. Will you show us the piece you do from this study?
Thanks!
