For today's picture, I have chosen a close-up of a honeysuckle. I hope you like it:
I am going to a 3-day Cheap Joe's Watercolor class in Holland, MI, this week and am supposed to bring some examples of previous work, some that I like and some that I consider disasters. I haven't done watercolor before so I am playing with it now. Here is what I have so far:
I don't think I have to tell you that I consider both of these to be disasters!
I am working on a couple more and will share them after I tweak them a bit.
I am tutoring this morning and need to get in the shower and eat a bit before she arrives, so I am off. I hope to see you tomorrow.

Glad you are feeling better. Your new header is wonderful--your technicolor faces!!
ReplyDeleteHave a wonderful time at the workshop:) Love the HAAC!
ReplyDeleteJanet,
ReplyDeleteThank you so much for visiting and your always positive comments.
Susan,
What is HAAC?
xoxo
Ding dong, the pain is gone .... hooray!!! And, I see you figured out how to put your own work on your header - it looks great. The flower photo is very pretty, and, me thinks you're being waaaay too hard on yourself in your criticism of the pansies. I think you did a really good job, especially considering it's your very first watercolor. Take care, have a great trip, and I'm so happy you don't hurt anymore. hugs, nancy
ReplyDeletegorgeous picture! And really nice watercolor painting too. I am thinking about doing "A LOT" of them real soon ^^ Hopefully
ReplyDeleteSo glad to hear that you are feeling better! Your blog looks great! And I hope you have a great time at the workshop. Sounds fun!
ReplyDeleteWell I am so glad the pain is gone but it's rather scary not knowing what it was from.
ReplyDeleteYour photo is beautiful. Hope you have fun in the class.
I see your new header! Very nice. I am still in the middle of my first face.
Beautiful photo. I am so glad that you are feeling better. I visited your blog last night, but didn't have time to comment - hope it stays away! Anyway, my favorite disasters in watercolor are when I add blue to faces and create the waking dead!
ReplyDeleteI like your new header--lovely drawings! I hope you have a great time at your class.
ReplyDeleteThat's a relief, so glad to hear you feel better :D
ReplyDeleteI love the new look to your blog, the header and the colour look good. Pansies are not that easy to do (I think it's because they're flat), so don't lose heart if your not happy with them.
These are really pretty. Glad your hip's better. Take good care of yourself.
ReplyDeleteWoozer! The heading is a hit. Your flowers are a good start. If you had all the answers you wouldn't be taking the class. So glad that you are feeling better.
ReplyDeleteSo glad you are feeling better! I love the new look of your blog! Beautiful red background and excellent new banner! And these don't look like disaster watercolors to me. I like them! I hope you have fun at your workshop!
ReplyDeleteSo pleased to hear that you are feeling better. Enjoy the class - I do hope we are going to hear something about it....??
ReplyDeleteThese are not both disasters! The one on the left is really pretty. Stick with it, you have the touch :0)
