Colour me positive week 38

I rather liked doing this one, the last few I have done have been awful. Serene and peaceful. Not a lot of sketching has been going on here, I have been knitting. and ching so not much to put up.

Playing with tea bags

I usually use gesso under these but didnt this time. because I am placing them on black pages in my book I think the gesso makes them stand out better and if I dont use too much you can still see the lovely colours left in the tea bag.

Week 34 colour me positive

Trouble is this one doesnt look very positive. Whatever I did it didnt photograph well and yet in real life it is quite good. I used a spray as a background, then I rubbed over a rubbing tile with crayon and then drew the leaf in pencil. I think I shlould have gone over it again with a pen. Oh well. I will brighten things up next week.

Week 33 colour me positive

I think my caption for this was something along the lines that would it be possible to pick up a feather and fly. Having fun. It is on my face book page.

Colour me positive

I absolutely loved doing this, Ro Bruhn was our inspiration this week with Alive being the prompt. I love Ro's work and this is my tribute to her. Not nearly as polished, much more primitive but the best my rather shaky arthritic fingers could do. I have always loved doing houses and rolling hills and pastures but this one just seemed to jump off the paint brush at me. I hope she doesnt mind.

Colour me Positive week 30

I find it incredible that I am still managing to keep doing these. This week the prompt was creative and I think I am finding myself being a little more loose and creative, not all the time but I loved doing this weeks page.

From my sketchbook

Playing in my sketchbook, first one a bit of this and that, the second one was done when I got home after seeing this as I drove in fog yesterday,
