Sketchbook Revival Revisited

 

A few of the Sketchbook Revival videos have been re-released for use.  This is my art from the "Free and Fun Withered Sunflower" workshop with Ildiko Karsay.  

I started with suggested Indian ink pens to doodle my sunflower.  I used watercolors to paint my sunflower.  I then used texture plates and colored pencils to color around my sunflower.  I did this in my Magilla notebook.  Just regular cheap ruled notebook paper.  

I had fun with the project.  Just happy to have a little art time to enjoy this morning!

Sketchbook Revival Binge Fest

collage in my "Magilla" notebook
Sketchbook Revival Binge Fest is on!  As I have a little time off work, I am trying to find free time to enjoy as many art lessons as I am able.  This collage was created by following along with the video lesson "Tell Me About My Dreaming Child" with Rakefet Hadar.  

I worked in my "Magilla" notebook, which is a basic ruled notebook (no special paper).  I used acrylic paints, printed scrapbook papers, an Indian ink pen, and a bit of stamped text.

This was a fun and inspiring exercise.  I hope to enjoy more workshops as time permits.  Sketchbook Revival Binge Fest is open for 12 more days.
