Day 15 - 30 in 30 Days - Dragonfly Fly

Dragonfly Fly
6"X9" Mixed Media on Arches paper   I like this better now. It is more purple than  the photo shows. Shades of purples, blues and greens. Here's what I did. I have some paper towels that I have saved from my silk dying projects. They have some beautiful mingled colors.

  I used a plastic doily for the wing design. I sprayed acrylic on  the back (it's flat) and used it like a stamp.  

I used Collage Podge to adhere the torn pieces of paper towel  and a permanent marker for the wing outlines.   

  Little touches of Golden brand interference  iridescent paint on the wings and body. I wish you could see the soft shimmer.  

  I stenciled "FLY" and added highlights and shadows with oil pastels. Doodles around the edges. All done.

Day 14 - 30 in 30 Days - Dragonfly Disaster

Dragonfly Disaster

5"X7" watercolor on Arches paper   It was late last night when I finally was able to get into my studio. I tried some more drippy, runny watercolor technique and saran wrap on the wings. Not happy with this.  So Plan B goes into action. Be sure and come back for Day 15  which I will post later tonight (I hope).

Birch Path

8"X10" watercolor on Arches paper   I have done this several times, several ways 1 monochromatic - only blue,  then another using only yellow and blue, This one - red, yellow and blue. Very limited palette. I even have an instruction DVD (2 in the set) for all three scenes in my Etsy shop. This was the watercolor class for today. I had  my students do their on pathway and trees. Here is their work. I think they did a good job!

Day 10 - 30 in 30 Days - Peacock

Peacock

5"X7" watercolor on Arches paper   The wedding this past weekend was at The Spirit Ranch in Lubbock. It is a beautiful place. I was delighted when I arrived there and saw peacocks! They didn't have the long, colorful tail feathers but they were peacocks. I had a blast with  my camera. And the birds were pretty willing to pose and strut their stuff. Beautiful!   Thou art worthy, O Lord, to receive glory and honor and power:  for thou hast created all things,  and for thy pleasure they are and were created. Rev 4:11
