I know Christmas comes so fast and all of a sudden I need to be ready. Since I have been doing watercolor classes, I decided to paint our Christmas Card this year. Well, after countless of tries I was not happy with any of them. So, I cut them up and did a collage with the pieces. Our last class in October was textures. I tried saran wrap, salt, stamping leaves, negative painting, and several washes. I think it has turned pretty neat.
I like working with the watercolor, but find controlling the water very difficult. I am seeing some practice paying off with my washes. Drawing seems to be my most difficult part of it all.
Now to see about printing them and on to creating some gifts. Have a couple of purses I want to make for family members.
