Watercolor drips
I have been working on my "Sketchbook Project" this past week and thought I can share some of what I have been working on. I really enjoy working with watercolors dripping effect. Since my theme is "Raining Cats and Dogs" I figured this would be a perfect time to use my new found watercolor effect. I tried a blow dryer, but blowing on it (using my lungs - LOL) gives me more control. I wish my scanner would scan the sketches better. It really doesn't capture the true colors. My daughter is also helping in the "Sketchbook Project" so she drew a kitty cat giving the weather... she is so cute.

It looks as though you are having great fun ! Nice sketches too and original technique with watercolour to adjust to your theme. I have only six doublee pages to go before the end of my Sketchbook for the 2011 Project, my theme being "your name here"; but I find the paper really frustrating !
ReplyDeleteGREAT dripping effects - especially the red !It is pouring rain outside at the moment so Ican relate to that.
ReplyDeleteI have the theme "The View from up Here"and am doing an A to Z of drawings form photogrpahs I have taken from up high
Your pages are really good, I especially love the kitty giving the weather report..perfect for the theme!
ReplyDeleteI love these drawings and the watercolour effects, your daughter has the same talent as you, how lovely. My theme is jackets, blankets & sheets.

ReplyDeleteLove your paintings, especially the girl with the umbrella. They're beautiful and poetical. And your daughter's drawing is great, very cute, and fun and well done!
ReplyDeleteNice pages! Love the cool colors
ReplyDeleteThank you for all the nice comments - I hope we can get thru the sketchbook on time. Sometimes I amn afraid I am going to rip thru the paper.
