Yeppers I am hanging in there !!

The weather man is saying for here in NC,Next week will only be in the 70's to low 80's for our high, But we all know this forecast can change in a second !

I am trying my hand at Water Color painting,

 I am learning to use a lot of different, Techniques.

 I have no idea what they are,

Water Crayons, Gelato. Paper all kinds of different kinds of paper, 

I did learn to stick with one or two teachers, Because every one has different tools they use some use big time $$ , I am far from that.I like the teachers that say for those who are just Beginning  use so and so,. That helps keep the price down....Sharing my first 3 water colors, Please remember I am brand new to all this, My style that I want to learn is whimsical, fresh, pastel colors, When you look at it ,it makes you smile..I know it will take time and a whole lot of practice , which I am trying to do every day

My First One ,Using water color paints

My Second One, Love Birds,I used water crayons, I need to really practice using these to get the softer look I want:This is my first time using the water crayons, That is so cool to use,
 I want to do the Love birds again Because I am now seeing I need softer lines, more shadowing work more with the back ground, Just knowing I can see this, shows I am learning TaDa~
My Third: It is called "A Quirky Bird" I am Taking a class by https://www.willowing.org Used water colors
"Quirky Bird" I did in water colors.
I am on purpose  showing my New Adventure ,because I always think what ever I create is not good enough, I am determined to get pass that!

Hi Sherrie! Your watercolors are wonderful! I'm so happy to see you are still blogging. There aren't too many left from "the early days" so it's nice to see still in business and sharing your heart.
