I've got the Sunday blues...I love going to work, but I have some busy weeks ahead- a few concerts, an observation, and lots of lesson planning to do. Luckily, Dave and I have had a great weekend, and next weekend will be even better! (Free comic book day, Star Wars Day, Cinco de Mayo, Iron Man 3, and a crafty get-together with the gals)
Today I watercolored a feather for the Moxie Fab "Wonder of Watercolor" challenge. I started by lightly drawing the shape onto smooth bristol (my fave), then adding the paint. Once it was dry, I sketched the feather with a Faber Castell fine-tipped pen. (Would you guys want to see a video of my watercolor process? I could probably put a tutorial together next time I paint on one of my cards)
When I get the chance, I'll be sending this card to a friend of mine who said she wants one of my paintings...do you know who you are?! :)
My Utility Belt (tools I use often!)
Is it me? Is the painting for me? Cuz I luv it and I'd love to see a tutorial! Can't wait to see Ironman 3, too.
ReplyDeleteThis is awesome, the design, the feather, the water colors, all of it! And I would definitely like to see how you do it. I am terrible at water coloring, so a tutorial would be great!
ReplyDeleteMy, I wish I was the recipient, I would frame it, just like Wida did :)
I would love a tutorial :)
ReplyDeleteSo pretty Jennifer! I love that feather...and I would love a tutorial on it too! I really love the splatters around the feather...so lovely. :) I'm really looking forward to Iron Man 3 too! I'm hoping I'll be able to see it the day after it comes out. :) Have a great day!
ReplyDeleteOooh, I love that feather and yes, I would love a watercoloring tutorial!
ReplyDeleteSo Pretty!!!
ReplyDeleteLovely card - I would love to see a tutorial. Watercolour is a fascinating medium, I have tried it but not too successfully and would like a few pointers...
ReplyDeleteGorgeous colours! I'd like to see you draw as well as watercolour!
ReplyDeleteThis is gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful, beautiful card, Jen! I'd love to see a video of your drawing/watercolouring technique. I'd love one of your paintings one day, too! ;-) I promise I'd send you a card back (but that probably isn't an equal swap, LOL!)
ReplyDeleteThis is gorgeous! I'm always blown away by your drawn images/cards! You really need to do more!
ReplyDeleteGreat card! Would love to see a video of your WC process. ;-)
ReplyDeleteThis is beautiful! Love the bit of misting you've added to it too!
ReplyDeleteI would love to see a tutorial. I think you are an amazing artist!
ReplyDeleteBeauty-full. I don't know how to watercolor, I just love playing with them. Would love to see you at work.
ReplyDeleteStunning! This challenge has your name written all over it, girlie! :)
ReplyDeleteHave a super duper weekend - I won't deny that I'd love to be doing the same kinda things! ;D
Hugs!
