As part of an assignment for a watercolor studio class, I created two large floral-themed watercolor paintings that used a "bubble wrap" texture. The first was "Bubble Wrap Roses," which is available for purchase on Etsy.
Here are some detail shots of the bubble wrap texture -
This colorful 22"x30" painting was created by layering wet paint with bubble wrap. Once the layer was dry and the bubble wrap removed, I went back with a paintbrush to emphasize certain colors (to better define the floral image), while maintaining the circular "polka-dot" texture.
The first painting was such a success that I created another one - "Bubble Wrap Lilies." This one, also 22"x30" in size, is no longer for sale.
