Drawing on Felt Paper

I made this after my workshop with T. Lui.
I used oil pastels on felt paper.

Etching Painting

First, I paint this rainbow colors using primary colors and let it dry.
Then I mix the primary colors to make a darker color
and I paint this dark color over my rainbow painting!
And then I etch my design over the dark color while it is wet . . .
I have to work fast before the dark color gets dry
and I won't be able to show my rainbow colors underneath!
Can you guess what I am etching?
I made a seascape etching!

My Abstract Painting!

First, I choose four colors starting with umber.
Then I use pink, 
and I add more white and yellow 
to the pink to make peach 
and the last on the top is yellow and blue 
with white to make blue-green!
Then I use the initials of my name
and add blue green moon
and a small red house
and colored rocks 
with rhinestones
and this is it:
My first abstract painting!

Can You Guess What I Am Painting?


My pair of talking birds
inside a cage!
This is just a painting.
Teacher Lui said it is best for birds
not to be in cages. :-)
