Sketches over the last week or so....

loosely based on Ilfracombe Harbour,

I just decided to make it very basic and see how it turned out

....and this is what happens when I doodle whilst chatting on the phone!

This next photograph 

(yes I've sneaked in a photo)

should 

make 

you

 Smile

See....I knew you would

I tried sketching this, but didn't use a pencil outline first,

just used the paint to draw out the picture

- I looked for Shapes rather than looking at the subject for what it is -

then outlined in pen when the paint had dried

and finally I have done this next painting

from a photograph.   I won't show you the photo as it was

sourced from another Blog and I didn't ask permission first!

Shock!  What is that she says 'didn't ask first'!!!

Well, there is a reason, you see if the person

recognises this from the photo and Likes it, they

can have it as a gift. This really was a fun painting.  

I approached it in a similar way to the above painting, but

dropped a lot of wet-into-wet washes in.

 I have put it in a mount and clear cover

and if by chance it isn't claimed, I don't mind that either. I enjoyed painting it.

I'm Linking to Paint Party Friday today

with many thanks to 

EVA & Kristin for their hospitality

Have a great weekend all
