Watercolor Painting of My Cat Frank

Wow, it's been since August since my last post.  I've done a few paintings of my friends pets and I did one of my own kitty, Frank.

Here they are:
My Frankie
Fiona



When I find the painting of Chas, I'll post it here.  These two are watercolor.

Need to get Back to My Art

I have been consumed with working on my family tree.  That's a whole different art and different blog and it's consuming my time.

Tonight I want to get out my pencils again; my colored pencils, put on my artist hat and create!  I find it so relaxing and might even do some zendoodle-ing.......something that can be done in front of the TV.  Can't miss Big Brother tonight.

Family tree, art, crocheting, knitting, jewelry!  Yikes!  I don't know what I should do but work on one thing at a time.  Am I going crazy?  


That should be me on my bike, if I had one, but for sure that's my butt!

This is one of my favorite pieces of art.  I used lots of acrylic paints, stencils, stamps, sprays, wax crayons.  You may recognize the artist's work. It's Tamara LaPorte........She's beautiful artist and the best way I know how to learn is to find a picture I like and try it. I love her work.



Happy Arting!!

Colors of Summer Challenge

Colors of Summer challenge is sage and sepia this week!  I missed last week due to lack of data on my wifi plan so I will probably post it today, too.


I thought it looked more sage than it shows on my monitor.  It was fun and I'm glad I discovered colored pencils.


The week before was candy apple red and yellow, I think.  More colored pencils and my portfolios.  I know they look like they're floating but it's not really a still life, it's a picture of apples!  LOL

Come back again soon and happy creating!
