Day 26 of The 100 Day Project was another one to wade through. At least it started that way. I didn't have a good night's sleep as I kept waking up and thinking about the fiber paste clusters I mentioned yeaterday. Yet I didn't come up with any ideas. I don't often do well working from a plan anyway so it felt like the worst of both worlds. No ideas and tired.
However, Thursday is for attic art when Rosanna joins me for a couple of hours, so at least I could have a laugh in my grumpiness. š
I tried messing around with the fiber paste but didn't feel inspired, then I faffed around for a bit and eventually gave up.
My eyes fell on a tube of blue paint and I decided to go with that. I asked Rosanna to pick a number between 1 and 25 and she chose 19. I took the 19th sheet of A3 from the pile of ex lifedrawing papers and decided I would keep going until the paper was all covered.
To make it more of a game I randomly chose one paint at a time and used a different tool to apply each paint to the paper. This was the result.

Layer 1
I painted over the figure on this sheet of paper a long time ago. You can probably tell from the lines that she was sitting when sketched.
Layer 2
First up was the blue I was attracted to initially which I applied with a credit card.
Layer 3
Dark blue applied with a broad, flat bristle paint brush.
Layer 4
Lime green applied with a small foam brush.
Layer 5
Dark green applied with a pallet knife.
Layer 6
Bright yellow applied with a very small bristle paint brush.
Layer 7
Neon pink applied with a finger. And that was it. Mission accomplished. Sheet 19 covered with paint.
š Thanks everyone for cheering me on.
Your support is very much appreciated. š
