Tim Holtz Colorize Bloom

Hi Everyone,

This blog post will show you (and remind me) of the various papers I created for making all these cool flowers. So I’ll be adding to it as I try different things.

Also, since I’m doing more tutorials now, I’ll put more effort in taking better photos. In the past, they’ve just been for my reference.

attempt #1

The very first paper I made was using watercolor on watercolor paper and I made a bunch of squiggles leaving white space in between.

As I thought about the design of these flowers I thought it might look better to have the small detail pieces in a solid color so they would stand out better so I just swooshed some watercolor in different colors on a piece of watercolor paper.

My first flowers were seriously that simple and I love how they turned out!

I’ll be back with more ideas soon….
