Art Journal fun!





This week I have mostly been playing in my watercolor journal. I have very little experience with watercolor, so I am just playing around, getting a feel for the medium, playing with color, and stuff like that. It is a really fun medium, so easy to keep building up color you can never be done with a a painting! I played with triads a bit to see what color combinations I could embrace. Fun!

I received my 15 canvas order already too! Can you believe that! I think I only ordered it on Monday! So that is exciting-15 new possibilites! My .99 sale is going well on ebay too! Last night I added another pattern which hasn't been offered on ebay in a long long time, so keep checking!

Todays work



I'm not sure if I'm actually done with this. I might change out the flowers on the bottom if I can find something more interesting. I do like the way it came out otherwise. :) Don't forget to check out my .99 sale on ebay-there are some paintings on there as well as patterns!

Hey I'm having a .99 sale at Ebay!








Lots of great pattern deals, and other goodies! I'll be listing all week so check often! You may be surprised at what you will see for sale for only .99 cents!

On another note, I am finally feeling better! Hooray! And the weather man is promising 48 degrees on Wednesday! Boy will that ever be welcome! We have had such cold weather, especially the last few days. I am looking forward to getting back to my painting so much that, I put in an order for 15 new canvases from Dick Blick! Woot! I wouldn't want to run out, now would I!

Grow Painting on Ebay


After much urging from my daughter Chelsea, I decided to put my last painting on ebay. I hope it will not sit there forlornly with no bids or even watchers. Somehow, even when things I've made don't sell, I cannot feel too bad if I have watchers. That lets me know at least people are interested. I was afraid putting a painting on ebay and having it not sell would take the wind out of my sails, so to speak. But it is actually this illness that is doing it. I have not been this sick in years. I did finally drag myself to the doctor to get an antibiotic. So finally today my throat is a little better. At least it didn't feel like a raging fire this morning when I got up-just more like being scraped across a gravely highway.
Hope all of you out there are in better health! I am looking forward to next week when I am determined to be feeling better and getting back to work. I have spent a lot of time looking at my house this week, so I will be doing a lot of home improvement chores when I get feeling better! ha! ha!
