#doodlewashJuly2022 prompt:  Time.
July is #WorldWatercolorMonth2022!
Did you know that archaeological evidence indicates that Babylonians and Egyptians were measuring time 5,000 years ago?
I was in a hurry because of a lack of time, but I didn’t want to do the usual clock or watch thing. The background I’d done made me think of skyscrapers, so I…[Read more]

#doodlewashJuly2022 prompt:  Time. July is #WorldWatercolorMonth2022! Did you know that archaeological evidence indicates that Babylonians and Egyptians were measuring time 5,000 years ago? I was in a hurry because of a lack of time, but I didn\'t want to do the usual clock or watch thing. The background I\'d done made me think of skyscrapers, so I decided to go with an abstract showing many things change through time, yet the jungle is always with us. * Hahnemühle 100% Cotton Watercolour book * Zebra Zensations Technical Pen * Aquafine Watercolor @Hahnemühle_USA #PostcardsForTheLunchBag #dalerrowney1783 #LifeImitatesDoodles #Doodlewash #WorldWatercolorGroup #ZebraAmbassador #ZebraPen_USA @zebrateam_usa 3 Time-Zebra Zensation Tech pen & Da Vinci watercolor in a Hahnemühle 100% Cotton Watercolor Book

#doodlewashJuly2022 prompt:  Passion.
Did you know the word Passion comes from the Latin ‘patior’ and originally meant ‘to suffer’?
I was in a hurry with this one and took the obvious route. Probably why I’m not too happy with it.

#doodlewashJune2022 prompt: Train.
Did you know the conestoga wagon was designed to carry up to six tons, and travel around 12-15 miles a day? While we know little about its invention, the first recorded purchase was in 1717 by the secretary of William Penn, James Logan.

I’m Getting Ready For World Watercolor Month 2022!
I really want to do all the prompts in a journal just for the occasion, but worry a bit that time will be an issue (don’t we all?). Then I had an idea for a theme – silhouettes.

I’m Getting Ready For World Watercolor Month 2022! I really want to do all the prompts in a journal just for the occasion, but worry a bit that time will be an issue (don\'t we all?). Then I had an idea for a theme - silhouettes. I\'ve got a Hahnemühle 100% Cotton Watercolour book and I\'m getting it prepped by writing the prompts for each page, and doing a loose and lovely background. Those are quick and easy to do, so I can do a page here and there, ahead of time. Then when the prompt rolls around all I have to do is some kind of silhouette. Easy Peasy - right? Okay it probably won\'t be as easy as all that, but definitely easier than coming up with a full painting each day. These are the two backgrounds I\'ve done so far. * Hahnemühle 100% Cotton Watercolour book * Aquafine Watercolor * Malden Flake Salt added to second page July is World Watercolor Month!

#doodlewashJune2022 prompt: Humpback Whale.
Did you know that humpback whales have ‘gathering’ places where they meet at regular intervals and share songs?
I decided to do something a little more stylized for this one. All those barnacles just seem to call for it.
