Jeanne's Class 4/15/13

Poppies are my favorite flower, but these were fake - so a bit lacking. I used a bit of pattern from a cloth that was nearby for the background. 'Still experimenting with the Chinese ink.

'Loved the colors in this pot. I used watercolor pencil scraped onto wet areas for texture in the pot and some Chinese ink for the black lines in the picture.

Casual frames

'Added a "casual" frame around these portraits to fill up the space a bit. I used watercolor pencils (grainy part is where I painted water on the paper and scraped the pencil with sandpaper).

Jeanne brought some tulips in on Monday. I liked the curvy shapes that they made so I decided to do a closeup. One of the girls in the class gave me some Chinese Watercolor ink to use (applied with a stick) which I thought made a nice effect.
