Sketching: made this one on the plane too, so it was mostly in the dark as we flew the red-eye.

Lettering: I got these amazing @beampaints gouache set and I wanted to try them right away so I painted this extremely yummy background. Look how amazing those colors are! I also loved this sentiment and loved that my lettering sizes are all over the place. It makes me happy.

Watercoloring: I have been using too much water or something else that’s making the paint seep under the tape lately. I do love the colors on this though.

Sketching: this one was rushed as I was waiting for my wonderful husband to come home from his trip. I haven’t found a really good class in learning how to sketch. I’ve taken many in perspective or other technical aspects but I need someone who can hold my hand a bit better and inspire me the way @thiswritingdesk has for watercolors. If you know of anyone I’d love a link so I can go learn. In the meantime, I use Pinterest and keep practicing.

Watercoloring: moonlight in the forest. I would never be able to make these without @thiswritingdesk and her classes and encouraging voice. If you’re even remotely interested in watercolor landscapes go the her classes, sign up for her 10-day challenges (they are free!) I recommend her to everyone because she’s the best and kindest teacher I’ve found.
