Doodle of the Day: Watercolour Woman

8.5 x 11"

I was doing a bit more watercolour practice over the weekend and mimicked a painting I found online to see if I could accomplish similar brush strokes.   Happy Summer!

Weekend Wrap-up: Flower Power and Greek Dinner

Curls

This weekend was okay. Not super fantastic, but not too shabby.  I didn't feel quite myself but tried to keep my mind off of certain things by doing a few random things such as trying out my new-to-me dehydrator (I can't WAIT for my first batch of banana chips to be finished).  On Saturday evening my family and I met at this restaurant to celebrate my sister graduating from college (again, ha-ha).  I made her card myself using watercolours on watercolour paper and then adhering it to a blank greeting card.  Super simple but fun nonetheless.  The weather was supposed to be on the crappy side so I hadn't planned on going to any farmers markets and boy did I miss it!  I think next weekend I'll try out a different town just to mix it up a bit.

Bananas are a dryin'!

On my way to the library

Busy bees were all around these flowers.

New Peonies for me!

Doodle of the Day-Watercolour Produce

I just finished putting away a lot of produce from our market shop this afternoon so I feel this painting is appropriate to share.

The final size is 8 1/2 " x 11 "

I finished it a very very long time ago (not entirely sure on the exact date) and don't recall the amount of time it took.  I'm guessing it just took an afternoon to complete.
