So lovely. I would leave them up all year too! One of my goals for the year is to get better at lettering. I love your style.

Trissa Nova started the topic Two colors you couldn't live without in the forum Art Supplies You Use 5 months ago
I noted on my intro that I’m trying to get a better handle on crafting a limited palette. So I’m curious if you had to pick just two colors…perhaps if you could only use those two colors for a few weeks, what would they be?
For me I think maybe Daniel Smith Transparent Red Oxide and Ultramarine Blue. If this image comes through, it was a few…[Read more]

Mixed media paper, interesting. I haven’t tried that at all. I mostly use Daniels Smith but felt like I needed to move to W&N in order to get a turquoise I really liked. Is the blue/turquoise a mix you made or did I maybe miss a DS shade I should have tried? And is that Imperial purple maybe? I’m intrigued with how well these colors flow &…[Read more]

Wow, gorgeous. Both titles seem to fit, to me. I’m curious about the paint & paper you’ve used.

Thanks Trissa. I’m using Daniel Smith watercolors on Canson Mix Media XL paper in a ringed sketchbook.

Thanks for the link to your bio. So interesting! I love how your art interests weave through different media and subjects. I also got a real laugh about you having different social media identities and being accused of stealing from yourself or folks realizing they already knew you.
Given my RV goals and my current time limitations, I am tr…[Read more]

Hi everyone. I’m not sure whether folks still use the forums but I’ve just joined the site & thought I’d make an intro. It would be great if other folks could post about themselves as well. Even if you already did…some of the intros on the thread are from a while ago and so much has changed in the past couple years (to put it mildly).
I li…[Read more]

folks here are so talented. I love the colors for the zebra with the warm and the cool. there’s so much I need to learn & explore still…i would not have thought to put them together that way and they look amazing.

Margit – This is such a great piece. I admire (and aspire to) the way it conveys so much with few, loose lines combined with the detail/focus on your Yeti’s most menacing features.

Adorable. Is this a commission? I love how the eyes/nose are in sharp focus while the periphery is more diffused.

Always been partial to these animals. I’m a beginner, so had heard it is important to focus on value before diving too much into color, so the left-hand one is only DS Perylene Green (on Arches 140 Hot Press) Octopuses

I use my journal to record everything in roughly the order it happens, so cat antics, husband antics, views, foods, travel (hint hint for you) and I mostly stick with one journal until I finish it.
Yes, I’m definitely interested in recording our travels. What kind of journals do you use? When I started painting I was trying several different sketchbooks but I think I have my preferences sorted out now. I just started a fresh one last weekend and I intend to stick with it until it is done as well. I saw a reco somewhere to paint or sketch…[Read more]
Here is one of my images in my last journal. I find if I have nothing else to draw or I’ve changed my palette it definitely breaks the ice.
