Painting Poppies

Those of you, who have been around here

for long, know I´ve been trying my hands on

some sketching and painting.

trying out new tecniques

different medias

exercising

recently I signed up for a Poppy

painting class at Mitsib

 I just love the way she´s painting

her poppies.

this is really challenging

these poppies are made with watercolor.

I haven´t painted much with watercolor

so wanted to learn the tecnique for this too

here´s  my humble attemps

I´m having a hard time

trying to have the paint do as I wish

It looks very easy on those instructions

I tell you

it.is.not

I made these today

making a few in between

practice - practice - practice

I might get the hang of it eventually

Have a beautiful day

I´m participating in the Icad challenge

I´ve been wanting too, ever since I heard about

it last year.

It´s a great excuse to create every day.

I really like that.

These are my cards for week one
