End of the week

As I sit here listening to storms, I have realized it is the end of another week. The rain is a welcome change from the scorching heat we have been having in Michigan.

I have enjoyed some time this week playing with paints. When I started moving from scrapbooking to mixed media and now to watercolors, I did so without any classes or lessons. I have realized I have no idea what I am doing g😀 this week I have watched a couple of videos and painted along with the artists. I am beginning to learn and understand watercolor paints better. I still have a long ways to go but I am learning.

Here are a few of my creations from this week.





With each one I have learned something new and feel a little bit better about grabbing that new piece of paper. 

Adding this  to Paint Party Friday - http://paintpartyfriday.blogspot.com/2020/07/paint-party-friday-week-19-year-10_10.html

Be sure to stop over there and visit the amazing artists!!

And I hank you for visiting and for your kind words. I appreciate them more than you know.

    I have only used watercolors a bit but they're a bit hard to control. These are lovely creations. I really like the first one.

    Have a lovely day.

    Lovely watercolouring - the rainbow giraffe is a treat, and I love those overlapping flower petals. Happy PPF!

    Jean I think you create beautifully in watercolors. I think you are a natural. Well done indeed.
