Last part of Frosty Winter Nights

Hello :)
It's Superbowl Sunday and I'm sitting here watching the game while writing this post. It's rather late here in UK ...in fact , it's already Monday here. I finished my late shift at 23.00 , rushed home and just made it for the game to begin.

This last week was a success for me because I won the watercolor challenge for January. The prize was an Amazon Gift card and obviously I spent it on art supplies. I will just have to wait a little for it to arrive from the USA.

I took another Skillshare class with food items. The February challenge is gearing up to paint and illustrate a recipe.

Apart from that I completed a Macramé wallhanging and a plant hanger .

All in all a creative productive week. But now to the last part of the kit.

Next week will be the start of a new freebie kit again .

A Valentine kit in rich red and gold tones , suitable not just for Valentine layouts. Detailed previews next weekend .

Until then .

Stay creative :)

More frosty Winter Nights

Hello :)
Yup ,I'm one day late posting...sorry. I came off nightshift yesterday morning , had a bout 3 hours sleep, caught up with housework and some other things, cooked dinner and sat down on the sofa in front of the TV. Big mistake ! I got sleepy and instead of posting ,I forgot and went straight to bed. This morning I had the "oops" moment when I remembered. Ah well, I'm human , and not a machine.

Okay, let's start with art news. Did you ever want to learn about colors? About mixing ?
Over at https://learn.blackchalkco.com/p/palettiquette you can do a free month long class (weekly tasks) in your own time. It started beginning of January, but better late than never. I just did week 1. All you need is the 3 primary colors (yellow, red ,blue ) and from these you will learn how to mix lots and lots of different colors and shades.
I just did my first color wheel and i's so much fun creating your own watercolor palette.

All these and more from just 3 colors.

Inkstruckstudio's 2018 Watercolor challenge continues with Food items for week 5 -theme Donut.
I get hungry looking at them :)

Week 4 theme was Squares.
I used metallic fluorescent paints and filled them with gold floral doodles.

 And the grey weather made me buy some daffodils. I wanted some color inside for a little spring feeling. I will take some close ups and try to paint them.

It's my weekend and I have lots of plans. How much of them I will actually get done remains to be seen.
I'll let you know next post ;)

For now it's Frosty Winter Nights time....

You have one more part coming next week and then ....well, I don't know about you, but I have the desire for some more colorful designs now. We have Valentines Day coming up and it's not long until Spring. So enough of winter and let's start a new season.

For those interested in knitting that patchwork blanket, I will also try to do some updates on that page soon.
Stay creative

Frosty Winter Nights

Yeah...we really have those here in the moment. But I don't mind the cold as long as it stays dry and sunny..... Hello :)
It's rather late already , so I try to make this another quick post. But I have pics to show this time. I finished another Skillshare class over the weekend and also a challenge.
Week 3 of the Watercolor Challenge was Shapes- Diamonds

I decided to create a star shape and fill them with galaxy style and add a kind of web to the white space.

The Skillshare class was 5 projects/lessons. I'm showing 3 of them here. The task was Autum/Winter illustrations in leaf form.

The final project and definitely my favorite ;)




And now to Frosty Winter Nights....

Here come the previews...

Here the links for this week, one with backgrounds and one with elements
