... Still a life-long learner...
...Still practicing art...
...Still trying new things...
 |
| Drawing, acrylic paint. The underlayer was the shadows in browns then color added as a second layer. |
 |
| Acrylic, collage paper, stencils, bubble wrap, white pen, colored pencil It seemed odd to stencil paint the flowers black. I didn't have the white spray paint for a spritzy touch, but I used what I had to make an interesting effect. |
 |
| Drawing, watercolor, colored pencil, pen I had to be brave with blue, right across the face, neck, & chest for shadows The water looks like fire... or the back of a dragon walking past... oh well... And, the hair is a little more Medusa and a little less flowing... again... oh well... |
 |
| Watercolor, India ink flow, splatter on wet, Posca pen As I've done many many lessons, I've learned that I can do what I want and ignore what I want... nobody's checking my work. I tend to leave out the spiritual, ritual, mystical, symbolic parts. I like my two plain old gnarly trees just fine. |
 |
| Craft paint, colored pencil Hmmm... Okay... It's a momma bear dreaming??? |
 |
| Book page, Watercolor pencils, splatter I got a book of Robert Frost poems at an estate sale for 50 cents. Money well spent! |
 |
| Drawing, alcohol markers, colored pencils, letter stamps This was my second attempt at learning to use alcohol markers. I was more successful than the first try... still don't quite have the knack... |
 |
| Collage papers, stencil, penwork It was supposed to be an oracle card, but I just call it a card with a pretty design. I've kind of enjoyed making some of these projects into notecards that can be used. |
These are all so beautiful, Helen!
ReplyDeleteYou're always so encouraging, Linda!
DeleteWow you are not constrained by style or material. I'd not imagine combining some of those media. I need to get some watercolour pencils...
ReplyDeleteYes! Do get some watercolor pencils! (Like with anything else, I've discovered that the cheapest brand works, but it isn't the best option.) Yeah, I think I have two distinct art sides. With my oils, I'm neat and tidy and rule conscience. With my mixed media... I'm kind of a mess all over the place!
DeleteThere's just something fun about trying things, whether they work out or no. If something is learned in the process, it's not a loss. Always fun to see what you are experimenting with!
ReplyDeleteWhat will be next!!!!!
