Beautiful painting, Sandra! We have nesting Bald Eagles in a local preserve…they are incredible.
-
Thank you, Brenda! I live on a small lake, and occasionally hawks and eagles will come by to hunt. It’s amazing watching them.
-
-
Lovely again. We have lots of bald eagles on south Vancouver Island. I just absolutely love them! Great painting inspiration and photography.
-
Thank you, Eila! I love watching the eagles hunt!

Beautiful Sandra.
-
Awesome! A perfect painting for today!

That’s beautiful, Sandra.

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.

I think it’s great wish mine looked that good when I am in a hurry😉
-
Thank you, Brenda! It did help that I created the background ahead of time, and only had to do the silhouettes. It’s freeing not having to worry much about detail!

Beautiful.

#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.

Beautiful, love the background.
-
Thank you, Victoria!

Gorgeous Sandra, I am trying to figure something different for this prompt 🙂
-
Thank you, Brenda! Well, ‘train’ does have different meanings – to point at something, a line of something, like a train of pack animals, to train something like training a seal to do tricks, or something that follows like the train of a
wedding dress. Have fun with it!
-
-
Beautiful!!!
-
Thank you, Mary!

Always well thought out and colorful! Nicely done Sandra.
-
Thank you, Karen!

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!
