Monday Art Practice

 Good morning Monday, brrrr it is really really cold here along with a glaze of ice everywhere-Our front door is even iced in. So needless to say I had to reschedule my doctors appointment to next week.

  During these cold days, I have been reading books that are on my kindle, and also a couple large hard cover novels, as I don't have allot of get up and go with this latest arctic cold blast.

  This morning, I played with ink and watercolors. I try to do these art practices several times a week.  This one I covered the background with the left over watercolor paint on my pallet. Once dry I drew with dip pen and iron gall ink. Highlighted with watercolor paints when it was dry.



Happy Monday

    That's a beautiful painting! We are lucky having a mild winter and just had a long week of icy cold weather. Stay warm and drink more hot cacao with marshmallows.

    That iron ink gall gives you a great dark color. Nice squirrel. I hope your cold doesn't last too long. We have the same cold coming at the end of the week, and I think I'll spend a lot of time reading when that happens too. Hugs-Erika
