Life Book 2017: The Star Girl
This was the main lesson in Week 1: I took my time with her, but that’s fine. I used gesso and water based markers for her face and hair (I bought Koi Coloring Brush Pen some time ago and wanted to try them out). It worked pretty well and I am quite happy with what […]

Life Book 2017: Warmup Exercise
Seriously… I promise I will practice drawing and painting animals this year. The animal from my meditation was a cute fawn and what I managed to produce is this: Ok, I did not try to reproduce it realistically, it is supposed to be cartoonish and whimsical, but this is just… the best I could […]

Play Journal Update: 22 September
Just a quick sketch from yesterday in my Play Journal: Done in colored pencils with some watersoluble pencils for background. She knows she is pretty, but is not so self confident anyway. Something is bothering her…

Marie Planktoinette
I love Vitamin Sea course with Jane Davenport! The lessons are full of challenging content and bonuses and I am really learning and pushing my boundaries. I often feel out of comfort zone, which is unsettling and scary but so rewarding when I dive into it and experience the feeling of being able to do […]

Friends?
I managed to finish two Life Book lessons this week. One I already posted here. The other one was a collaboration between Tam and Jane, hence my attempt to paint two different style faces. I do not know if they are supposed to be friends or mother and daughter, or both at the same time, […]

Mermaid Rhythm
Vitamin Sea course is very good, I admit. It’s very challenging for me and I learn things. I’ve worked on the kind of bonus lesson for two days. It would have been piece of cake if I knew how to draw full body, but I did not. So, after an hour of just drawing two […]

World Watercolor Month: Days 17 and 18
Ok… I had a major emotional break-down and missed a post or two I think. Anyway, life goes on and I keep painting because that’s keeping me… No, I should not say sane, because that I am definitely not. It’s keeping me going. Yes, that’s the word. There was a small bundle of happiness waiting for me in […]

World Watercolor Month: Day 15
I had a busy day, but not so much doing art as with other things that needed my attention. So, I have only one ATC to show you which I did yesterday. I did another one today, but forgot to take a photo, and now it’s dark and it will have to wait until tomorrow. […]

World Watercolor Month: Days 13 and 14
I spent lots of time doing the lesson for Ever After, but I did not miss a day of watercolor. ATCs are quick and I need around 30 minutes to do one. This is perfect to get my daily dose of color and flow therapy! So, here is what I did: This is ATC No. […]

She knows
She knows but she is refusing to accept it. She hopes it is not what is. She hopes that it is true that everything changes. This was done on 5×7 stand-alone sheet of 300gsm hot pressed paper. It’s mostly acrylics and collage for background and the face is done in watercolors over a layer of […]
