Playing with my daughters pens.

I enjoyed playing with my daughters pens. Unfortunately the photograph doesn`t pick up the variety of colours and tones.

My husband has just odered me a new camera for my birthday, so hoefully when I get the hang of using that, I will be able to get some decent images of my artwork............that`s the theory, anyway.

watercolours, with zigg sketching pen.

We had a lovely day out last week, hubby and the girls were fishing, while I sat painting. It was lovely and sunny, and very peaceful. (mainly because the two youngest girls were in school, haha)

I am really enjoying working outdoors lately, and although I`ve still got a LOT to learn about painting outdoors, I am starting to feel a little but more confident, and I am beginning to see a bit of an improvement in my paintings...........but I still need alot more practice yet, so I`ll keep plugging away when the weather is dry.

Jackson`s warm sepia, watercolour.

I might have posted this before, but I don`t think so, so appologies if I did post it earlier.

This is another painting in my warm sepia range of local scenes. I have really enjoyed working on this series, and I`m sure it will continue to grow, because a) I`m enjoying working on it so much and b) there are so many lovely scenes around here that it`s hard to know when to stop.

I will continue to "play" and "experiment" with my work.....so that I can continue to grow as an artist, and learn, learn, learn.
