Known for her colorful landscape paintings, American artist Joan Mitchell filled her canvases with frenzied brushstrokes.
Try painting like Mitchell. Using paint and a small paintbrush, fill the frame using quick, short brushstrokes in all directions and plenty of color. Use this Mitchell painting as an example to help.
If you don’t have a canvas at home and are going to paint in your sketchbook, use the entire page as your frame. Or you can use the printable below for the image of a blank canvas to paint on.
