Learned a bit about amount of water needed and staying between the lines!]]> 2022-10-04 22:39:56 UTC https://padlet.com/scribbleandscriptcalligraphy/j8pcere6vnwrdtys/wish/2326557047 velvetdharmagirl https://padlet.com/scribbleandscriptcalligraphy/j8pcere6vnwrdtys/wish/2326611184 2022-10-04 23:51:24 UTC https://padlet.com/scribbleandscriptcalligraphy/j8pcere6vnwrdtys/wish/2326611184 https://padlet.com/scribbleandscriptcalligraphy/j8pcere6vnwrdtys/wish/2327764215 Such a great learning experience! I got a few squares mixed up that I had to go back and fix. And figuring out the correct mix and water ratio was a challenge, but very worthwhile.]]> 2022-10-05 15:04:54 UTC https://padlet.com/scribbleandscriptcalligraphy/j8pcere6vnwrdtys/wish/2327764215 https://padlet.com/scribbleandscriptcalligraphy/j8pcere6vnwrdtys/wish/2328024059 I decided to do the poppies for this. This project was a lot of fun, I can see doing another one. I did a bit of splatter with my #2 brush at the end to give it more interest, probably could have used the #6 but I didn’t want to overdo it.]]> 2022-10-05 17:35:09 UTC https://padlet.com/scribbleandscriptcalligraphy/j8pcere6vnwrdtys/wish/2328024059 https://padlet.com/scribbleandscriptcalligraphy/j8pcere6vnwrdtys/wish/2331498342 I decided to do another wreath after Lisa posted the directions. This one is looser with more water, not on the leaves so much.

I'm pretty pleased at being able to "let go" and just have some fun with it though. I found trying to make the leaves look natural the most difficult, but I can see improvement in my first leaves versus the latter ones.]]> 2022-10-09 02:36:36 UTC https://padlet.com/scribbleandscriptcalligraphy/j8pcere6vnwrdtys/wish/2332233321 https://padlet.com/scribbleandscriptcalligraphy/j8pcere6vnwrdtys/wish/2333909013 Will try this again in a while - once I get some more control!]]> 2022-10-10 16:55:12 UTC https://padlet.com/scribbleandscriptcalligraphy/j8pcere6vnwrdtys/wish/2333909013 https://padlet.com/scribbleandscriptcalligraphy/j8pcere6vnwrdtys/wish/2333910325 This one is a bit too 'open' - circle too large comparison to the size of the flowers.]]> 2022-10-10 16:56:05 UTC https://padlet.com/scribbleandscriptcalligraphy/j8pcere6vnwrdtys/wish/2333910325 https://padlet.com/scribbleandscriptcalligraphy/j8pcere6vnwrdtys/wish/2333911719 A bit closer - the yellow may not have been the best choice.

And especially how to do the viens on the upper leaves, thanks Lisa! I can see where I didn’t use enough water on the brown layer since the brushstrokes are so visible. But all in all a great learning experience!]]> 2022-10-13 17:22:38 UTC https://padlet.com/scribbleandscriptcalligraphy/j8pcere6vnwrdtys/wish/2339170156 https://padlet.com/scribbleandscriptcalligraphy/j8pcere6vnwrdtys/wish/2341465730 An excellent learning exercise. I struggled with creating a uniform background colour -- think I needed more water, but despite realizing that I struggled!! ]]> 2022-10-15 18:06:07 UTC https://padlet.com/scribbleandscriptcalligraphy/j8pcere6vnwrdtys/wish/2341465730 https://padlet.com/scribbleandscriptcalligraphy/j8pcere6vnwrdtys/wish/2341962781 I started planning out my xmas cards this weekend and thought I would try poinsettias with the technique we learned. This was fun to do. I got the leaf shapes from the internet, but will try one with real leaves. This is a much smaller scale than what we did in class, on 5x7 Strathmore watercolour cards.]]> 2022-10-16 16:04:04 UTC https://padlet.com/scribbleandscriptcalligraphy/j8pcere6vnwrdtys/wish/2341962781 https://padlet.com/scribbleandscriptcalligraphy/j8pcere6vnwrdtys/wish/2344101550 I enjoyed this practice activity.
