SO MUCH CONFETTI

Post image

I've been on this one for a month now, second square painting and it's a 50x40. (Second larger piece ever) It's going to look SO GOOD but it's taking SO LONG.

Do you have trays like Artdot or redtwo?

This from Temu,

I much prefer it than dumping drills and then putting them back in the containers. Especially with this piece. Absolute life saver.

it looks great but the confetti is a nightmare. hang in there because the finish is going to be worth all that drill swapping.

The only thing keeping me going. It's like a cabin in the woods and I've been in that kind of vibe recently with the show I'm watching and books I've been reading. I'm so excited for the final result

It's okay, remember it's about the journey. When I have a lot of colors I choose a favorite do that for a little while, then I'll go to another one. That way I get variety in my colors and don't get bored doing one color at a time. Just an idea. Just have fun. That's what this is supposed to be about at least for me.

Yeah I do enjoy it and I'm so excited for the final result. The blues and pinks are my favourite and the sky is looking so pretty. When I was kitting up the blues stood out to me so much. I love the colour blue in all its shades.

My next piece will be one of my smaller one's though haha. This one and the one before this where large so a small one to break it up will be a nice change. And a round for my next as I have a few.

The confetti in this one is already testing me. This is a pic before I started.

That looks so cool!!! I don't mind a bit of confetti but this one is mostly colour swaps. Definitely going to do a smaller piece next.

So it looks awesome. But what do you mean by confetti? I've never heard that term before.

2

u/Snazzy_CowBerry 13h ago

All mix of colours and not many big sections like this one has.

Confetti is like having to change colours all tbr time because there is so many. I don't really know how else to explain it haha.

u/wolfspirit135 13h ago

Ohhh. Yeah I've had that happen a lot. Especially in ones that are 20 plus colors. I just didn't know it had an official term 😀

u/Snazzy_CowBerry 12h ago
