Bold and Basic

 

The first doodle in The Doodle Book is bold and basic, but it isn't the first doodle of the class.

The Doodle Book is 6" x 6"and contains sixteen pages of our own doodle creations.  But before beginning this book, we made a smaller, 18 page book, containing lots and lots of sample doodles and ideas.  We were encouraged to copy Joanne Sharpe's patterns in this first book to help us build our doodling skills.

Art Sparks 4: The Doodle Book

 

Joanne Sharpe's latest Art Sparks class is all about doodling.  This is the cover of my book.

Westcoast Calligraphy September Program

 

The Westcoast Calligraphy Society has a terrific line-up of programs planned for this year.  Although we can't meet in person, we're now meeting by Zoom.

In September, we did some watercolour spraying.  I've done it before, and it is always a fun activity.  We were supposed to gather fallen leaves to use, but it was pouring with rain that day, so I used some plastic ones.  And rather than the lovely fall colour I had planned, I had to use green because the pump on my butterscotch spray bottle was clogged.  It was an evening of last minute improvising all around, but with a Zoom meeting my supplies were all close at hand!

Yesterday I added the greeting using Akim Cursive and made this card . 

Pockets Full!

 

The last pocket is full and I have posies to spare for other journals.  What a fun class this was - Joanne Sharpe's Art Sparks 3!:  Pockets full of Posies.

Cheer During a Pandemic

Joanne Sharpe certainly knows how to bring cheer during a pandemic.  Her special series of classes is bright, bold and distracting!
