I’ve used my Waterford crystal dolphin as an emblem of the anniversary and theme of my ATCs, placed in front of a painting from fb. I’ll keep most for the crop but let me know if you want to swap otherwise via Lmcollis(at)icloud(dot)com.
The painting is by Sue Goldberg.
I did get to use the new brush rest Brian made for me from a coaster and corks. It’s really good! There are two half corks on the back so the brushes slope downwards to avoid moisture collecting in the ferrules.
My desk at art class this week was less messy than I imagined as we were dipping the twigs into ink to draw the hare. Watercolour will be added later.
I was using a feather borrowed from our tutor for the fur. Someone else wanted it so I sped up, hence the nasty blotch on its back. It might scratch off when I’ve finished.
I saw this picture of a bag for holidays online. I didn’t buy the pattern but I’m making a similar one for myself.
I’ve had to remind myself how to whip cord. There’s a link below.
Bella has been enjoying the better weather, here she was in our apricot tree.
And finally:
Happy anniversary!
Hugs
