Today's challenge was House + Fly Optional Technique-Watercolor
I grabbed my watercolor paints and inks and my watercolor notebook
After I finished this I realized I messed up the lines of the roof-but it was fun to figure out what to paint although this is a bit primitive haha My paintings always look like a child painted them-perhaps because I never drew or painted as a kid. I am embracing the fun this year.
Hi Kathy, I love your pretty, flying house. Have a great day, hugs, Valerie
ReplyDeletethank you so much Valerie
DeleteYou are doing art from your heart-I love it.
ReplyDeletethank you Debra hugs
DeleteWhen you try something new or fairly new, it's such fun to see what happens. It's good to embrace it and just see what happens. Have fun Kathy. Hugs-Erika
ReplyDeletethank you Erika, this is my goal for improving my art this year-hugs
DeleteIt is very sweet and reminds me of a children's book illustration. As long as you are having fun and enjoying that is all that counts.
ReplyDeleteCathy
thank you Cathy-yes the main thing for me this year is to have fun learning and not be so hard on myself-hugs
DeleteHouse plus fly would have thrown me. Debra called this art from your heart. I love that, I know I need to challenge myself to draw from mine. Hilltop post
ReplyDeleteI love your drawings that you share from your journal. Yes that was a strange challenge-I didn't want to try to draw a fly haha
DeleteLOL. Redaing the challenge I had SUCH a different image in my mind!!!
ReplyDeleteYours is better by far!
(In Australia you have so-called Blowies. They are little flies. There are ear-flies, nose-flies, eye,flies and lips-flies - they go for the moisture we have... eeeek - one wants to be HOME
They are called Blowies cause you blow with your mouth to get them away).
Love your house - and your style! Kid-like or not, it´s great.
The idea would freak me out, though...? Although great in earthquake-prone places!
Your background makes me feel cold. We have 46F! Hugs from here
(your card is on)
thanks Iris, we are back to winter cold again low 20's F last night
DeleteWhat a great idea from the prompt Kathy! Made me think of that cartoon movie .. I think its called ' Up ' .. Your drawings/paintings are perfectly YOU! Windy and warm here to day... daughter in CA is getting drownded.. wish she'd send some rain this way! Hugs! deb
ReplyDeletecalifornia seems to get too much or too little rain-sigh we are back to cold again here thanks these challenges have gotten me out my comfort zone for sure
DeleteThis is SO clever. Love it. I hope you are sharing this on FB.
ReplyDeleteYes I am although a bit intimidating as most posting are very good artists
DeleteYou are still doing a great job. Whatever you do, DO NOT feel intimidated. I bet the "good" artists don't weave or slow stitch, or eco dye or . . . . Be proud of your accomplishments. BTW, for Day 5, I saw a bird. But I am not playing because I am so far behind due to being offline for so long. I did enjoy the challenge because I got to see all except Day 5 when I got back online.
DeleteIt was amazing to see all the different ideas that were created-thanks again for telling me about it I enjoyed it. Yes I am working on having fun with art this year and not be so hard on myself trying to learn new things.
DeleteLove how you gave the drawing a wonderful interpretation of flying. Drawing is such fun and it is nice to embrace the child in all of us. Hugs!
ReplyDeleteI am totally new to drawing-so this was fun once I had an idea on what to do
DeleteFun challenge! Nice work.
ReplyDeletethank you
DeleteLovely art.
ReplyDeleteI love that you're embracing the fun! Drawing is excellent. I just love it.
