Happy Friday!
This week was an okay week but I am lacking energy and motivation.
When do you start decorating for Christmas? I think I am going to start decorating this weekend.
I need some lights and Christmas decor to get me uplifted.

This week I did create a little artwork and I managed to put together the last Vlog for October.
Have a look if you like.
Linking up today with Friday Face Off Hosted by the wonderful and talented Nicole
&
Art for Fun Friday hosted by the lovely and wonderful Gillena.

This was done on Thursday November 6th on Pastel Paper,
I used my phone to work on a self portrait for Nicole's Challenge.
I am going to keep working on my self portrait with a variety of mediums to explore and learn more.
I used chalk pastels. I feel I need a lot of practice with measurements and proportions.
I do have a book that I am going to look over and It has technical lines and measurements that I can learn from.
I kindly won gouache paints from this brand on Instagram.
I am truly grateful.
A video of the swatches.
Painting with the gouache paints and testing them out.
I notice gouache paints dry flat.
I need to work with them more.

ReplyDeleteHappy Weekend to you ~ ^_^
OMGosh how fortunate to win paints and fragrance. Yes, gouache does dry flat. I don't use it very often so I can't help in how to fix that. However, you are such an accomplished artist I am sure you will figure it out. LOL The self portrait you are going to use for the challenge keep saved for the 28th. I will say that you did capture your likeness and I love the colors. Your art journal is amazing. I love that you use all different mediums. I think I should do that more. Thank you for joining FFO and have a very nice weekend.
ReplyDeleteHello Nicole! Happy Friday! I definitely will keep the self portrait saved for sure! :) I think will use pencil for that one. Thank you for hosting a wonderful party as always! Have a wonderful weekend and thank you so much!
