“Pensive”. Today was play day so I spent some time doing 5 minute watercolors using Sktchy photos. I did about 15 before I called it quits. I chose this one to finish. I added more watercolor and I used ink after. I normally work ink first but sometimes I like to change things up. I felt this young lady would look good by the beach.

Here is today’s sketch..

“Pug”. What a cutie! I had a loonnnnggg day painting today so breezing through this guy was a breath of fresh air. I hope you like my interpretation. Pugs always make me smile.

Then, there are my wine glasses….I had to do a mermaid….here are front and back shots plus the sculpture that inspired the glass…


I couldn’t do a mermaid without a pirate:

I thought the photo was fit for a queen so I made her the Queen of the Dragons with a nod toward GoT….I had a lot of fun with this one…and I am up way too late….

  “Thereupon they went deeper into the forest, and in the midst of it, where it was the darkest, they found a little bewitched hut, which was standing empty….” “The Twelve Brothers” by the Brothers Grimm…

“Then the maiden said in her heart, “I know with certainty that I shall set my brothers free,” and went and sought a high tree and seated herself in it and span, and neither spoke nor laughed.” From The Twelve Brothers by the Brothers Grimm. This is one of the more grim fairy tales.
