WIP

I' ve been making a lot of flowers lately and have been itching to do something with these 3 small canvases I have on my work table for awhile.  So I broke out the paper clay.
After gessoing the canvases-they were a very boring triptic of polka dots and circles- I applied the paper clay.  I love the way Creative paper clay feels and how easily it can be feathered into the canvas.  I've got all 3 done with a floral design, 2 of the 3 are dry and ready to paint and now the second scary part. (The first was the blank canvases staring at me as if I was looking at a wall that dared me to pass, not a blank page that could be filled with whatever I wanted.)  Now I have a white page staring at me.  I have an idea of what to do but where to begin and what if the vague idea in my head looks like mud on the canvas?!  Crap!  I will just dive in and hope for the best.  So what if it looks craptacular.  So what if I really suck.  That's why I got that huge tub of gesso,right?  I could just white it out and start all over again. Besides this is Hardly the Sistine Chapel and I am very far from DaVinci and if I don't just dive in I won't get to that magic moment when I look at the canvas and can't help but smile, that what was in my head has come out, maybe not entirely as I planned, maybe different, maybe better.  Besides,  discovering the picture is what makes this so much fun....here goes......
