The artwork is a perfect choice for living room, dining room or hallway. It’s a hard skill to learn, and you only learn it if you are willing to take the risk of failing. There is an art to letting go, to knowing when any further effort and embellishment will only add noise, not improvement. There’s always something you think of at the last moment. There are little details I’m not super happy with, things I’d still like to change, and I am seriously tempted to repaint this next week and do betterĪnd, while I’m being honest, I can say I’ve felt that way about every book I’ve ever published. I quit last night because I’d already gone over the 2 hours I’d set aside for painting and I needed to get some sleep. I’ll be 100% honest here… I could do more with this painting. A lot of effort and time has been put into the project and the painter (me!) or the writer (you!) should feel justifiably proud of the effort. For most books, this is where they hit the query trenches or the publishing trenches. The equivalent of a book is one that has a couple rounds of edits and gets a nod. It could be called done and hung on the wall. The foamy white crest splashing everywhere, reflections of light, more clouds, more color, more paint… And, again, this is a decent enough painting. The bones of a painting, or a story, are there. This looks nothing like the wave I envisioned! A rough draft doesn’t have the mental heft and weight of the book in my head! All is woe and sadness! It’s also painfully ugly and that ugliness makes too many people throw away their brushes (and their books) and give up in frustration. You could probably sell this at a flea market for $5 and call it a day. This is the visual representation of a a rough draft. What do we have here? It’s a basic wave, you can see the shape of it now, and the middle has been filled with a purple blob that doesn’t really add much, but that’s okay. Phase 3: Color Blocking And The First Details Draw in the ideas you know belong and figure out the rest as you go. You should know where the book starts, and where you intend it to end, but the middle is always a murky mess when you begin. Not middle visible? Ah, yes, that’s either this painting or anyone rough outline I’ve ever written. Are you writing a thriller or a romance? A Romantic thriller with a happy ending? A Thriller with romantic elements and a tragic end? Is your focus on one or two characters, or on the fates of thousands? Is the tone light or dark, somber or joyful, lively or a slow dirge into eternity? Knowing what you want helps you get the foundation of your story correct.
First you need to decide what is going into the book. You can see my test splotches in the top corners and the combinations further down. There’s Primary Blue/Yellow/Magenta, or Magenta/Hansa Yellow/Pthalo Blue, or Cad Yellow/Cerulean Blue/Crimson… the different starting tones made different colors. Phase 1: The Outline and Choosing your Colorsīefore I could even paint my wave I had to pick which set of primary colors to use. If you’re interested in making this painting yourself check out the fabulous Cinnamon Cooney and her Art Sherpa youtube channel. Since NaNoWriMo is coming up in just a few short weeks I’m going to pull this all together in a quick mini-writing lesson. Learning a new skill isn’t everyone’s cuppa tea, but I enjoy improving on something, and painting is a nice break from writing.īut, because I’m me and I like patterns, metaphors, and books I couldn’t help but let my mind wander over to how acrylic paintings – which tend to be ugly up until the very last brush stroke – are so similar to book writing.
I enjoy painting because 1) I honestly suck at visual art like drawing and painting and want to improve so 2) I have to focus when painting and it becomes very meditative. It’s an interesting technique that relies on blending primary colors (red/yellow/blue) to create all the other colors needed. This weekend I tried a new-to-me project and did a 3 Color painting of a wave.
