Watercolour Practise


I've been practising my watercolour technique thanks to a book by Claudia Nice - Painting Nature in Pen & Ink with Watercolour.  I'm not drawing like Claudia does so well, I'm using rubber stamps.  I have enhanced them after colouring with ink.

One Cool Kitty


This cool kitty is a Maryse Carrier stamp, coloured with Prismacolors.
The words are from inque boutique.

If it's not fun......

you're not doing it right.


This is another bit of homework done for the Westcoast Calligraphy Society.  I used a mussel shell to do the lettering and coloured it with watercolour crayons.

Twinkle Twinkle

The ball and stick lettering I used on this Artist Trading Card suits the Maryse Carrier stamp, don't you think?


It was coloured with Prismacolor crayons.

Keep Calm and Carry On

In October, I attended my first meeting of the Westcoast Calligraphy Society.  The program for the evening featured lettering using mussel shells.  Really!


This is a bit of "homework" done in my art journal and coloured with watercolor pencils.
