Hello to February

Our watercolor lesson this past Monday was the scene below.

The first was done in class; the second was done at home.

I did a portrait of my granddaughter who lives in California,

using a candid photo I had of her. This is sort of an age

progression since she is in her late 20s. This looks a lot

like her mother at this age.

And in the mixed media class Saturday we made painted papers

that we can use later on in journals and other projects.

The first two were connected into a long skinny piece.

And this one was almost a square. I showed it 2 weeks
ago when it was a WIP. Now it has white and black writing.

The writing on the painted papers was done using FineLine

containers filled with thin acrylic paint. I bought two,  

one for white and one I filled with black.  I have now

ordered some more of these liners. They are wonderful

for writing in journals, on mixed media projects, etc.

For an exciting trip through a digital "art gallery",

visit Paint Party Friday, hosted by Eva and Kristin.
