Painting to Music
(Celtic Harp) acrylic inks, gesso, lace texture on 12X 12″ canvas by Susan Cornelis
"No brushes! Just ink droppers, fingers, a roller, and a bit of lace to “stamp” texture on. Not intended as a finished painting, though maybe it is. An opportunity to let music express itself with paint. The music for this one was Celtic Harp, tripping as lightly as ripples on an otherwise serene sea. Bright and spritely."
Spontaneous painting to music can be inspiring, moving, and a reflective experience, whether you are using brushes....or not....almost like a form of meditation. It also can be a stress reliever! Expression of your inner self comes naturally if you practice this. Be adventurous! Loosen up and don't be hard on yourself. If you don't like one of your paintings, there is always another day. Just keep painting!
In class we painted as we listened to classical music and the results can be seen here.....
