Paint Party Friday: Week 21, Year 4 Check-In

Welcome to week 21, year 4 of Paint Party Friday!

Last week, the random.org number generator chose #63 - Valerie-Jael.  In her blog post last week, Valerie shared a wonderful art journal page that remarkably started out as a "brush wipe page"!  This painting is definitely inspiration to "wipe" your brushes on paper or canvas before washing them, as far as we're concerned...

As always, please make sure to use your post URL address NOT your blog home page URL address as there are many late visitors who get confused as to which post is for PPF when they arrive (after Friday) at your website. If you are unfamiliar with Mr. Linky, an explanation of how this tool works can be found on Week 1 and Week 2 posts.
Wishing you a week filled with light, flowers, and plenty of inspiration!

    I'll certainly be wiping my brushes on paper from now on.
    I love the patterns and colour mixes that party on my ceramic plate when I'm cleaning up.
    Thanks so much for hosting ...it's so inspiring

    Congrats Valerie-Jael for a beautiful page! I really enjoyed that one last week. The blue and white contrast is awesome. I have been using paper or canvas to wipe my brushes off for a while now and get some great backgrounds too.

    And thank you Eva and Kristin for continuing PPF every week. It really gives me something to look forward to and keeps me painting.

    Happy PPF!!! Hugs, Rasz
