Travel tree and music

This is an image from Morocco. I was inside a market place so it got blurred because it was dark. I took it to Photo shop and enhanced  it with a filter. I think you can call it Impressionist photo.
I like to go through old travel images. Here and there I find something useful :)

 Whimsical Tree Goddess, finished, I think! Canvas 31x40 cm. Acrylics
I did not want a large black space at the bottom so I let her skirt flow out so the background is visible. This exercise was good and I, kind of, like the finished one. BUT, I clearly need more practise to teach my hand and arm how to paint curves :)

I think I will call this one "Louis Armstrong"
It is painted on an OLD record with Louis music on.  I bought the record in a second hand store. I don´t dare  tell my sister. She liked the old music. :) Well, could not play it anyway. It was 78rm
I used a colander for the pour. Tempera color. The record soaked up a lot of  paint. :)

Summer is closing in but we need much more rain where I live. I hope everyone are safe from drought and flooding.

Whimsical tree´s texture canvas with shadow pattern, edited in photoshop

This is the "Whimsical Tree Goddess" project.
I saw the video on Youtube and thought it is a good exercise for handling pencils. First time  I got the blending of  Acrylic colors to my liking. It was well explained how to do it. So I was happy :)
Then I made a sketch of the treegoddess. And got stuck! It is hard to transfer the sketch to the canvas as the canvas surface is kind of, slippery.
So, for the time being I photographed the canvas texture and took it to photoshop for some fun edit.
