cards and show

Lots of line drawing of animals, that started as sketches for InkTober, but ended up as cards I'll be selling at my next show! I think I'll splash some watercolour on them all. : )

Well, InkTober is coming to an end. I've had lots of fun with it. I hope to squeeze one more ink drawing in this week. If not, until next year. : )

a pearl of wisdom

I really enjoyed painting this portrait! I almost didn't touch the line drawing, but in the end I figured I'd go for it. 

The art show last week went very well. Thank you so much to all those that came out to it! 

I have all of my art framed and ready for a few more group art shows before X-mas, and now I have time to get back to doing some watercolour painting. 

Stay tuned. : )

"Jo" and "think aloud"

think aloud

InkTober is keeping my on my toes with portraits! I'm drawing with an RSVP pen, which is quite fine, then adding a wash. Also, finished framing all my work today in preparation for the show this weekend. Super excited! Watercolours really shine once they are matted and framed.

Here's info for the Toronto Riverdale Group Art Show.

Sue's hat... Jim's hat

I'm really enjoying InkTober! It's got me doing 3-value portrait studies with an RSVP pen and wash, homework that is long overdue. It's easy to get caught up in the wonderful world of watercolour, but sometimes it's important to go back to basics. Also, I do love painting people wearing hats. : )

Here's my second line drawing for InkTober. I drew this one while at the library and it's so nice to see people with books in front of them, instead of computers! Still working on how to take a photo of a white piece of paper... looking a bit gray but the only alternative is over exposed. Any ideas?
