Hello and happy Friday everyone! I can't believe it's already August can you?!
I'm super excited about the work I've been making this week. I'm not sure if I had mentioned in an earlier post or not that I have been working more with watercolors, but this week something switched for me. For awhile now I've been feeling this pull to simplify my creative process, less materials, less density, more light. Watercolors seem to capture this really well and I've been trying to "figure out" watercolors for awhile now. I've primarily worked with Peerless Watercolors (which I love) as I feel I am able to control the paint more (yes I have some control issues! lol). Needless to say, I was shocked to find myself absolutely loving wet-on-wet technique after watching this youtube video!

I'm really grateful to thefrugalcrafter and her generosity in sharing her creative process. Needless to say I could NOT stop painting. Just playing with dropping color into water. I find it completely fascinating. Here are just a few of the creations that resulted.
These are just a few of several fun abstract flower bookmarks that I created. You can check-out my Facebook page if you would like to see the rest of them.
I am also excited to share that I now have Instagram & Twitter accounts (thanks to a wonderful friend who set it up for me)! I want to encourage you to come and visit me there as this is where I will be posting most of my updates for awhile.
That's all for now! Always remember to keep creating.
