More photos of the Legos exhibit and my granddaughter.
The wall "paintings" shown above and last week were more
impressive to me than the 3D figures.

sky with mountains in fog?
sky and water?
sky and green foreground?
And one last attempt at using the Prismacolor pencils.
Thanks to Eva and Kristin for so
generously devoting their time to
giving us Paint Party Friday to enjoy.
Since posting these, I have found some tutorials
on using colored pencils and some blending techniques.
Next time I try, I think they will be much better.
Today's were all my own trial and error efforts.

What a beautiful collection of gorgeous artwork Faye.
ReplyDeleteI've not used mineral spirits before. Thank you for sharing and the inspiration. Happy PPF to you
I love your intuitive watercolour especially but more than anything I love that you keep trying new methods and things... you have such creative energy!
ReplyDeleteGreat drawings Faye. I have never used mineral spirits. Your drawings turned out great, all of them. I especially like the intuitive watercolor painting, such soft colors. Have a great weekend. Hugs, Rasz
ReplyDeleteYou inspire me to learn something about what is going on here. Pencils are very difficult for me to get dark enough colors. Excellent work.
