Dog in Acrylics and Sketchbook Revival

Acrylic Painting - Dog

I did this by watching an Angela Anderson video on UTube. I didn't like it when I had first done it but it's grown on me.

Sketchbook Revival

Day 4, session 2: Concertina Fun: Make a fun mini concertina book with Karen Stamper

Day 6, session 2 with Helen Wells. Expressive Sketchbooks: Seeking inspiration outside.

I used small sticks and the end of a feather to draw these with  ink. I used photographs of interesting trees for inspiration. I think this has been my favourite session so far.

I used two of the stick drawings to make a pocket in an altered book.

The pocket holds an altered postcard.

Day 4, Session 1 - You're a Hoot! with Tamara Laporte

The black pen I used was too thick and the feet are all wrong.

I forgot to take a photo of session 2 results so I'll leave that while next time as it is dark now.

Tiger in Acrylics, Watercolour Sketches and Sketchbook Revival

 Acrylic painting on canvas sheet. 

I had a Utube video on at the same time I painted this. It was Angela Anderson who was painting a tiger and although I painted a different tiger I still picked up some tips.

Sketchbook Revival 2021 started yesterday.

The first video was with Danny Gregory and we had to use a number of different mediums using each for 1 minute to draw a shoe. This mini ornamental shoe was a gift from a friend visiting Dubai.

I used an aqua marker,flex marker,uni posca, uni posca metallic, inktense block [with water] and a mangaka flexible.

The second video was with Carla Sonheim and we did one-liner drawings, i.e. don't take your pen off until you finish the drawing. I used an altered book for the first drawings hence the strange background.

I picked two of the drawings and developed them into these. I used coloured pencils and marker pen.

Don't forget to check out Paint Party Friday, it's their 10th birthday!
