Flora's style is intuitive painting. She suggests adding tons of color and various marks to your art - just "let go, be bold and unfold". It is a really fun way to paint. I am really drawn to whimsical work and love these crazy houses. After lots of mark making on my canvas I drew in my house shape with black paint, added more acrylic paint to the house, and determined where I wanted the eyes and mouth. Zentangle® inspired embellishments were drawn in with a Sharpie paint marker. The eyebrows are pieces of scrap paper I cut to shape.

Now that's twice within minutes that I read something about intuitive painting and it might just be the route that I'm guided to try. I absolutely love your beautiful painting.
I'm going right now to add your blog/website to my Bloglovin' reader so I can receive all of your blogs... I love what I see and what I have read. Beautiful. :)
Thank you ladies. I would really suggest giving this painting style a try Suzanne...Flora even suggests putting on music to let that inspire your mark making. It is a lot of layers with plenty of drying time in between..it adds so much depth to the painting and bright color.
Beautiful painting! I took Flora's class this summer and enjoyed it very much. If you have a chance to take it sometime, I really recommend it. ♥
Wow, Shelly..fantastic. It's my plan for next year.
