Owl sketch in my journal for an artwork im thinking of doing.
.
I’ve had an owl trying to come through onto my paper lately, but I’m playing with the idea of one or two owls in the composition. I’ve included a pic of my pencil sketch for fun... I actually really like it in just the pencil too!
.
For this drawing I have used;
Derwent watercolour pencils, graphite pencil and white ink, all on my Windsor and Newton sketch pad. It’s a heavy weight so it can hold the water added to the pencils and I love it!
.
What do you think?

So excited to be teaching watercolour classes! I w

So excited to be teaching watercolour classes! I will be teaching IRL, but, I’m also thinking to put together an online class that you can learn in your own time and pace. ⁠
.⁠
I will be covering creative ways to produce an artwork from concept to realisation of the artistic vision, as well as the foundations essential to build upon.⁠
.⁠
Topics covered; watercolour mixing and colour theory, composition, introducing mixed media, collage, digital tools such as photoshop/ affinity photo, and digitalising your artwork for print.⁠
.⁠
Sound like fun?? Are you interested?!

New brushes!!!! The smallest is a 0000 and the largest a 6. I bought the little beauties from aliexpress... a risky venture at the best of times, but these beauties are amazing!!!!! my new favourite brushes. I paid $80 for an Escoda brush once...and I hardly use it! These were about $10 for the lot and I am so happy that they are animal hair-free (synthetic) whilst providing excellent results. ⁠

How I test out my paint colours before I start a painting⁠
.⁠
Before I start a painting, I like to know what colour pigments I am going to be using. Using too many colours together can mix together and create muddied hues, and I like to keep my paintings radiantly luminous and bright!⁠
.⁠
I used the following pigments in the test swatch;⁠
Lemon Yellow⁠
Opera Rose⁠
Quinacridone Lilac⁠
Windsor Dioxide⁠
Antwerp Blue⁠
Indigo. ⁠

My beautiful Mother, to whom I owe my creativity to!!! ⁠
Mum is the kindest, sweetest, most tender soul I know. She has devoted her life to fighting for those that do not have a voice, the animals. ⁠
Mum has adopted many dogs and cats in need, mainly those that have been abandoned in their twilight years. ⁠They know they have landed on their paws when they are welcomed into her home to be loved and fussed over.⁠
She is a patchwork quilter, lead lighter, mosaic artist, dressmaker and has a sensational eye for detail and colour.⁠
.⁠
This picture was taken at 20 000 Cows, ethical vegetarian restaurant in Lismore where I took mum for her birthday.⁠
