Another splatter

Comments

Lovely - the spatters make me think of water droplets flying up around the kingfisher - a great way to convey this. Also like the way the spatters have suggested the texture of feathers. A great idea and it has worked really well, Carole.

This is fabulous, Carole! I love how the spatters come together as a whole, bringing such life and vitality to the painting.

Beautifully splattered and managed a splattered fish too (instead of battered)!

Really lovely work Carole. I love these relaxed looking images, possibly painted quickly and my goodness, what a result!

Thanks Glennis, battered :). Louise yes straight in with the brush, surprised the shape wasn't too bad!

I'd decided I'd done enough splattering but you have made me want to have another go, this kingfisher is lovely!
