workshop day 2

Still in process; needs more color

In process, with art gum still in place

On day 2 we did birches ... and used pebeo art gum for masking.

 I have 2 unfinished pieces plus the class projects to share today.

After art gum is removed, the whole piece gets a yellow glaze of thin transparent wash.

I may frame this one!               I love the colors.

Workshop notebook

Can't say I was bored, but I had a pencil in my hand and paper in my notebook.


Here is my rendition of Helga Flower and both the bell she uses to begin her class, and her spritz bottle.

Helga FLower workshop day 1

Wow, what a week ... 4 days of watercolor from 9 to 4.  On day one we did flowers from a bouquet; first one drawn in ink, then painted then add the background.

 I love how it turned out.

Second one we learned the drip vase, and eliminated outlines.

I gotta say, I am very tempted to go in and add some harder edges to my flowers with a drawing pen.
