For some reason, I am having problems getting started on
So I signed up for another class. Whimsical Landscape Painting with Mechelle Harrison. I did a sketch of Mt. Hood in photoshop and transfered it on to the canvas. Not particularly happy with it so will work on it some more tomorrow. Instead here is the Enchanted Bird done in the Whimsical Style for your viewing.
Outline sketch for Enchanted Bird Class. Ready to transfer to nicer paper.
I know it is misguided but I’ve signed up for 3 online art workshops at the same time and I haven’t totally completed the one I started a couple of weeks ago. The good news is that two of them will come with DVD’s in the off chance I get really far behind. Here is a list of the classes. How could I choose just one?
by Martha Lever.
Class is offered through Shabby Cottage Studio. No expiration date. Video class with a couple of handouts.
Medium:
Uses some interesting brushes. I already had collection of chinese brushes. I’ve ordered a cats tounge brush which I think is really cool. When this is all over, I’d like to take Whimsical Landscape Painting also offered by Shabby Cottage Studio.
