I love that cute shirt of your son's, I think it's great that your documenting the things from your kids into your daily sketching. <br /><br />Susan, these pages from your journal are so GORGEOUS, CREATIVE, YUMMY, AMAZING!! I remember the ones you did too, GORGEOUS!! How fun to have this now to look at and see it made from artists like you from other places. I love this idea and maybe will do one in the future. Enjoy it!!<br /><br />I have been sketching, my daughter brought home a big pad of sketch paper from art class, so I'm using it. Have also started something cute and tiny that I will share next week and getting my ICAD done each day too. Now I need to catch up on my PL though, hoping to this weekend. <br /><br />Hope your week was a good one and into your weekend also. Here it was hot and now it's cooler, had some rain too. Can't believe how fast June is going by already.

Make the petal(s) of the flower behind just a bit darker will give it some depth and distinguish the two.creatormehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12783383505232030325noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6141042391334253351.post-27198080167401193592014-06-17T16:57:25.747-07:002014-06-17T16:57:25.747-07:00Enjoyed the variety of art in your circle journal....Enjoyed the variety of art in your circle journal.

The pages you created are gorgeous!! Your poppy painting is soft looking and lovely. I do agree with Elizabeth though that you want to define the right edge of the flower that's in front so it stands out a bit more.

From...Susan, your paintings are simply INCREDIBLE. From the dinosaur to the flowers, I'm always impressed. Your book is wonderful, too. I bet you are very proud of it, and all the art others have contributed to it.<br /><br />As for your flowers, I couldn't draw if my life depended on it, but one thing I learned while watching PBS painting shows is, when two objects are side by side that are basically the same color, you have to made a distinct outline or edge on one. One of the edges must be lighter than the other. If I recall, the lighter flower's edge should be on top. It has something to do with the shading. Not sure if that's what you felt your problem was, especially since I don't feel competent enough to give any advice because I could never provide an example of my own.<br /><br />Thanks for sharing your tea and your beautiful art with us this week for T.Bleubeard and Elizabethhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10149710375520733752noreply@blogger.com
