painting shoes again

I am working on finishing some of that art from last week but there's so much else to do too...
I decided I really like making bright colorful flats or sneaks... my first pair are here
and my new pair are shown here in progress...

Inspired by the colors of the daylilly...

 I mixed up some fabric paints with water to be less stiff, and used a pen as a stamp, I stamped polkadots. I almost wish I had stopped right there with just yellow polkadots but i kept stamping with smaller pens, I did some doodling in my ICAD book to try out looks, then when it was all done, it seemed a tad too bright so i smudged white over top the dots to tone it down. I am pleased with my new pair!

I will show you what else I did with daylillies on monday...

inspired by a simple feather

Like last week, another video  of making a mandala, the inspiration and the final piece....these are so fun to do, but I do have something totally different for next week.... painting something other than circles...

gift of a feather

that once soared above the trees

now belongs to me

 

it's friday already!

this week has gone so fast...
I almost forgot about doing this post I was so caught up in checking out all the treasuries on etsy with my mini canvas! they are all sooo beautiful and interestingIt's going to be sooo hard to pick one on sunday!
anyway...


here's the inspiration.....this is maybe the eaglet but it's stomach is whitish too so not sure but it's right where the daddy eagle always sat a little ways away from the nest...

and the sketch...

and more inspiration at Mcdonalds....

and more sketches...

watching the birds soar

waiting for the perfect shot

I always miss it

Linking to artists playroom for their drawing theme

butterfly effect for their bird theme
