Treetop Trail on Paper

by nancy | Posted in: Art, Nature, Parenting | 0

  Tonight I tried to turn a bit of my forest immersion into art. You see, my ideal weekend routine would go like this: outdoor adventure, art, write. This hasn’t been happening much this year, since I’ve been juggling work, … Continued

Forest watercolour lesson

by nancy | Posted in: Art, Creative, Nature, Parenting | 0

You might think that as an artist, my kids benefit from lots of art instruction at home. But we don’t have very much time to do art together! I thought of an idea to try while I was commuting to … Continued

Mixed media painting: seaside city

by nancy | Posted in: Art, Creative, Travel, Video Post | 0

In September, I did this mixed media painting. I have rarely taken more than about five progress photos during a painting, and I think you will find it surprising how many changes this piece went to from start to finish. … Continued

Misty Mountain

After spending two weeks creating this new website, I finally have time to do a bit of painting again. I’m having a bit of performance anxiety when I look at my big white canvases, so I’ve been puttering with some … Continued

by DelightFilledArt | Posted in: Art, Creative, Nature | 0

This isn’t exactly a new year’s resolution post, but I did turn over a new leaf creatively this week. January and September seem to have this effect on me. Daily Paintings I decided to start the new year doing some … Continued

by DelightFilledArt | Posted in: Art, Creative, Photography, Travel | 0

After I kind of gave up on my 9th painting, I decided to start over. The image I ended up featuring is one I took on a family vacation to Oregon. We stayed in a cottage near the ocean, and … Continued

Insta Art Series – Painting 9: fail.

by DelightFilledArt | Posted in: Art, Nature, Photography | 0

Painting 9, as it turns out, was originally painting 2. I just did not like it and have been trying to salvage it this entire time. I didn’t like how it almost looked like a flag, with the horizontal colour … Continued

I was surprised by this painting. It turned out to be one of my favourites, even though it wasn’t looking so hot at the beginning. I was in a bit of a hurry to apply the first layer of paint … Continued

Insta Art Series – Painting 7

by DelightFilledArt | Posted in: Art, Creative, Nature, Photography | 0

This was a fun painting process for me. I really liked the simplicity that I started with – the almost black and white photos of misty, bare forests. The rich brown and turquoise. But to fit in with my series, … Continued
