Day 17. Watercolor Prep

Hello Friends, How has your weekend been?

Soo little time and so much to do but, I am guessing that you all feel that way too. With that said a super quick post today. This is a giant misti and I am so glad that I finally took the plunge and bought it. The beautiful flower is from Power Poppy and the perfect ink color in my book is from Gina K. Designs. (soon this no line ink will be available and it’s great for copic markers or watercolor).

Tomorrow I will share more about the stamp and link you to it. Making an effort to try something different I watercolored the background in a grey. I used a 0.03 marker to fill in some of the nooks and crannies.

Adding some brown to create some pretend shadows. I’m curious how this will turn out.

See you tomorrow. Enjoy your day! Hugs, Kathy

      I agree, Becky! It is freeing to just let creativity flow and try to turn off thinking too much 🙂

    Power Poppy has some beautiful flowers & this is one of them. I love it & might just have to get it! I love how you did the background & would not have used gray but I like how it looks with it. I don’t use gray a lot but I just might use it more than I do. I also love how you used the brown in the flowers. I can’t wait to see it finished! It looks so nice & I love a clean, crisp image, which that is. Please make it more colorful!

    Stunning both ways! Sepia for the brown and bright Springtime for the grays! Either will be wonderful!
