Fearless Friday, Fast & Loose Watercolor

I have a severe case of Spring Fever
which I am treating with flowers!
When I ran across the photo below I just had to paint these colorful glads!

I haven’t painted with watercolors in a while
and decided a fast and loose approach
was the best way to regain the feel
Adding color shapes here and there for the flower petals
Not overthinking, just playful
I wanted these flowers to look abstract
Some splatter for fun
Letting it dry in the breeze
A little definition with ink lines
Painting fast and loose is so much fun!
Rainbow tote Rainbow framed print Rainbow throw pillow
Have a creative day and Be Fearless!

The glads are a breath of beauty on another rainy day! Jenna, is this your freshly painted bedroom? It is stunning❤️
I am getting so tired of this rain!! No, that’s not my bedroom, it’s an app that you can use to display artwork. If the sun ever comes back out I will take photos of my bedroom. Stay dry and enjoy the weekend {inside} 😘
It’s so cheerful and happy, I love it! And I really love your total freedom and how you just go! I so need to loosen up. This might be a good project for me to try!
thank you Jeanie, it’s fun to not worry about the result and just let things happen 🙂
I think I’ve been under the weather with spring fever as well! And, the same cure, lots of flowers around the house. Now if only I could paint! Your painting is simply “beautiful”!!!! Will this rain ever end and expecting severe storms as well…….
I know, yuk!! I have been hibernating at home most of the week, but I have to go out today…I’ll probably buy more flowers 😂
It is so good to see the bright spring flowers, thank you Jenna. Your painting is splendid color!
thanks Sharon! I was happy to be reunited with my watercolors!
It’s 42 this morning in So. CA (yikes!) and your painting is a reminder that warmer days bringing sunny, colorful flowers will eventually get here. Thanks for starting my day this way, Jenna. Such talent!
Oh goodness, that is cold for So Cal! We have had the rainiest winter in the South, flowers have saved my psyche! Thank you Rosie!
Gorgeous, Jenna!!
So cheerful and bright, love it! 😍 Painting fast and loose is so much fun.
I was so happy to be reunited with my watercolors, I did 4 paintings last weekend!
Sooo GORGEOUS! I need to get my watercolors out again too and paint flowers!!! <3
thanks Jodi 🙂
I am so ready for spring!! The flowers are beautiful! Your painting is so pretty!!
Thank you Michelle!
Oh, Jenna, I so LOVE this one!! It makes me happy!! Such pretty colors!! 💙❤️💜💚
thanks Jill, it was pure joy to paint!
Awesome! So very pretty! Love the bright colors.
thank you Cyndi!
I love it!!! I cannot WAIT for spring. Although it feels like summer down here right now!
Love your watercolor bouquet Jenna! I think we all have a case of spring fever ♥
I love when you show how you create one of your beautiful paintings. You make it seem so easy but of course that is not the reality. 😀 Lovely!
thank you Karen!
I need to sit down and gaze at this painting! Watercolors are my favorite! And you my friend hit it out of the ballpark with this one! Do you sale originals?
Thank you Nancy, I love this one too…this one is sold, but you can order a print or canvas from Society 6
Oh and even out here in the desert of Arizona we have Spring Fever! We had snow two days ago down here in the valley. ! It happens every so often… like 15 years ago so often. A lot of our cactus are fine but our bougenvilla and lantana are frozen and brown. They will come back but… I want them blooming now!
Oh bougenvilla has me longing for the days I lived in So Cal where the weather was always warm!
I’m starting to have spring fever too. Your painting is beautiful. I can’t wait for flowers. Thanks for sharing at Merry Monday!
Lovely, Jenna, You are amazing!
