GRIDS ARE THE GREATEST!

A grid composition can be very gratifying. 

 The mixed-media painting shown below is extremely textural.

I added sawdust to the paint, but you can try crushed eggshells, sand,

or store-bought texture mediums.

Pastel tones may not be your preference, but for a large,

 soothing work suitable for a bedroom, perhaps,

colors with white worked out ok for me.



Try a grid painting or collage yourself!

Here's another idea if you feel your grid is too boring: Add lines,

scribbles, or stamped-on words, numbers, or letters.
