We are leaving for Pittsburgh tomorrow and won't be back home til next Monday. So I thought I would leave all my friends and followers a little Christmas painting I did last week. I guess everyone can guess what I've been eating too many of. I hope everyone enjoys the Holidays as much as I plan too. Be Happy and Be Safe.

Something To Feel Good About.
The other day I was experiencing sore throat and cough and not feeling very well at all. Their is one thing that I do that always makes me feel a little better. And that thing is painting roses. I found this photo on a forum I belong to and decided to paint it. I hope this makes everyone feels a little better. Thanks for veiwing. Arches 140cp with assorted waterpaint colors.

Katie
Since I did Kelcey I knew I had to find a photo of Katie. This was from a photo taken last Christmas. She has a strand of fake hair thus the red. I loved this because of the way she has her hands placed. I'm happy with both my colored pencil portraits that I have done. I really like the idea of leaving some of the paper in the piece. I also like trying to find shades that go with the color of the paper for the different tones in the face. Thanks again for viewing.

kelcey
I have been trying to paint Kelcey in watercolors for the last couple of days. I was not getting anywhere and beginning to become frustrated. Yesterday I decided to try doing her in Colored Pencil. I am pleased with how this came out. I used the paper as part of the picture so not all covered by CP. This was done on Canson Pastel paper and I used the wrong side as it was not as rough. I hope you enjoy viewing this and comments are always welcome. I just started my other grandchild so will be posting it as soon as finished.
