Painted sketch of tea... and sketch

I used a Koi Waterbrush (fill the handle with water) for the first time. It stays wet and I used 1/3 a 'handle full' of water for this painting however, it is very difficult to control the amount of water that comes out. It's the medium size from Curry's Art Store for about $7.

The portable 12 pan Winsor Newton watercolour set is great for sketching. Super duper portable and I had lots of fun.

One of my many New Year's Resolutions is to paint animals. I thought this wonderful Mountain Sheep was the perfect place to start.  The reference photo is from the website WetCanvas which supplies artists with photos.

I was inspired to paint this striped fabric. I thought pears, with their lovely greens and wonderful shapes, would compliment it nicely.

I'm having a blast drawing with my bamboo stick and artist's ink. And these items all fit together like one big happy family.
