Illustration Friday- Clumsy

Well, I can't have been the only artist out there to knock over a jar of paint onto a partially finished piece, right?

Artist's edit: Looked at the comments and seems like I should have clarified. (Sorry folks.) The paintings I do for Illustration Friday are all entirely new work (except when I'm on holiday- you have to take some r and r!) so the spillage on this particular artwork is entirely deliberate. The text is referring to some works in the past where I did indeed have to scramble to fix up a klutz attack.

  1. I think nearly every artist has done this at least once. I like what it did, personally. Adds some extra loose whimsy!

  3. Beautifully done - don't you love happy accidents - it looks like the paint splatters were meant to be there!

  5. I think it adds charm! Doesn't look anything but deliberate, actually.
