Collaborative paintings: Louise, Emily and Laura

With these paintings we had help from another artist, Laura Byrne.
We used some experimental painting techniques - paint rollers, wallpaper scrapers etc.. to create very colourful abstract images and one landscape painting.

We Started by Splashing different coloured paint on to the canvas.

Then we used rollers to spread the paint around, which caused the colours to mix and join up, creating abstract patterns.

We used the same technique for the landscape painting but refined it a bit more to make it look like a landscape scene. We were in a very secluded part of Mayo at the time so we were painting the view from the window of the house we were staying in.

 We are continuing to work collaboratively on paintings and will update again soon!
