Birdhouse -

Is done -

Ta Dah!! -

It's not wonderful -

But I have to remember that I'm learning -

And I have to give myself time to LEARN - LOL - ;))

I have learned that watercolor does what it wants to do -

And goes where it wants to go -

And I have to roll with it - LOL - ;))

I also learned that I can't multi-task very well -

I can't make blocks -

When the watercolors are on my ironing board -

But I can sew "tubes" -

So those are in the works -

While I played with some flowers -

The purple on the left is an example of what NOT to do -

The purple on the right isn't much better -

The purple on the bottom is the effect that I wanted -

But I had to use a different technique (than was listed) to get it -

I'm obviously not very good at the "palette technique" -

I guess I'm not fast enough -

By the time I get the color I want mixed -

My watercolor has dried up - or I've made a hole in the "palette" paper - LOL - ;))

Oh, well -

I still have more lessons in the booklet -

But I want to try some watercolor "paints", too -

So I may use the "paints" when I need a "palette" color -

And the watercolor pencils for the rest -

That might work - ;))



Talk to you later - gotta go - gotta sew -
