I painted this elephant.[3. Doodlewash] on watercolour paper using watercolour paints and fine liner.
The other Doodlewash pictures are in a cartridge paper sketchbook.
I might be sending the elephant to the POSTCARD ART EXHIBIT 2026
They invite artists on platforms such as X (formerly Twitter), Instagram, Facebook, Bluesky, and LinkedIn to contribute postcard-sized original works of art. Each exhibition is hosted in a different physical location, often in a new country each year, where the public can view and purchase the art to support the selected beneficiary, this year funds benefit people affected by Alzheimer's.
I also did a sun bear
Another option is one from some older paintings
I can only send one and I can't decide which it will be.
Photo Challenges
The first one was taken at Wallington, the rest at Beamish
Retirement cottages for mineworkers
Patchwork Bear
I also made a bear this week out of leftover fabric. It was really to try out the pattern which was from Etsy. I found some embroidered tablecloths at my mothers house and I thought I would make memory bears for my sisters out of one of them if I dare cut it up.
Flower of the Week
That's it for today. I hope your weather is better than here, it has been miserable most of the time since the new year started. Cold, wet and dark.
Enjoy your week!
