Oh dear, I am getting behind already - lost day 12 altogether I'm afraid. Anyway, here is day 13 this one was inspired by Andrea Gomoll's entry with video, most of this is watercolour and pencils - I am learning to enjoy this medium.
Day 14 is my very first all watercolour face (well almost, just some pencils in the hair/eyes)
I have a way to go on the shading part yet I know, we haven't got to faces on my course as yet - its florals next which I am really looking forward too, about time I learnt to do something else.. having said that I would love to surround the faces with flowers.
Hope you all had a good valentine's day - I did, its also my 10th wedding anniversary today, which is 'tin' I have been lucky enough to be presented with a tin of 'Windsor and Newton Watercolour Paints' the professional ones, wow!! Not that I will be using them yet, but they are nice to look at for when I am ready, came with a lovely brush too, might just have to use that.
I am having a break from faces posts today, not from faces of course (that never happens). I have been catching up with course work, I think I just 'might' have taken on a bit too much. My new work book for my watercolour course arrived today, I have done a few practice pages but not started the first actual exercise as yet as I wanted them altogether in one book, I did purchase a nice watercolour book but Christy advised one of these to begin with, its a Canson Mixed Media A3, with 30 pages or 60 if you use both sides, helps take away the 'paper fear' factor, great idea for me. So, I just had to decorate the front...
This great course, which has already taught me more about watercolour than I imagined, can be found here. Its called 'Obsessions' and of course this month its watercolour, there is to be a new topic each month - I think I would be happy with 12 months of watercolour.
I am also behind in my FACEcinating Girls course, and still not watched this weeks Lifebook video, and its Jane Davenport this week another of my fave teachers.
Hope to be back with the faces tomorrow.............. oh, and if anyone is interested I STILL dont have my car back!!!!!!!!
