Cherry Blossom and Doodlewash

My son and daughter-in-law bought me some acrylic paints for my birthday so I had a go with them. I found instructions on the internet for this.

Part of the full page showing the cake stand. I had an accident with some water at the top of the page so the green pepper got spoilt.

Doodlewash and Gelli Prints

Hedgehog

Anemone

Playing Cards

I followed instruction from isoiationartschool on instagram for the follwing picture created on a gelli plate with string. Mine doesn't look as good as theirs. It's supposed to look like flowers

I had paint left over so I coloured some paper to use for collage maybe. I made marks in the paint with some things made of plastic, rubber and a handmade rabbit stamp.

When I first put the paint on it just kept separating like this which is quite a nice effect sometimes but usually I want the plate covered properly. I'm wondering if its because the paints are not the best.

Happy Paint Party Friday!

Patchwork Bag, Watercolour Paintings and Card

Remember the pile of hexies I made? Well I've put them to good use and made a bag. I made it up as I went along so it's not perfect. By the way when I originally showed the hexies I said I made them on an evening while watching TV, I didn't mean one evening but many evenings.

I've been practicing more serious watercolours by copying from a book.

These were painted on loose pieces of watercolour paper. I'm not so keen on the flower.

It's my son's and his wife third wedding anniversary and as I couldn't go out to the shops I made them a card. The third anniversary is leather so I cut two hearts from leather. I used the brown card as that is what was used for their wedding invitations and I thought it would be a nice memory.

Happy Paint Party Friday!

A Page from a Sketchbook

It's an A3 sketchbook and I used an ink pen and watercolours. Some of the ideas I got from looking through old magazines before dumping. I'm sharing with Paint Party Friday.
