Joggles online Class

I'm taking an online Sketching and Watercolor Journal class. Often times I sign up for online courses and then never get to the assignments. I actually got Lesson One done and posted! Yeah me. So here is the first product.

5"x7" Watercolor and Ink on hot pressed watercolor paper

I wish the shadows on the apples weren't so dark and that I had left a little more white space on the apples to show highlights. I do like the use of ink and outlining to give it the journal feel, I would like to improve my lettering skills. Oh well, I'm learning.... that's what the purpose of the class is all about anyway! So tomorrow I'll buy some more vegetables and fruit and try again.

NC Farmer's Market in Raleigh, NC

I just love a good Farmer's Market, and the one in Raleigh is fantastic. I only wish I had remembered to charge up my camera battery before we stopped. Oh well....it was still very wonderful!

These pumpkins were huge and had price tags in the $50 range. I've never bought a huge pumpkin like that, so I was very shocked!

The Indian Corn was so harvesty looking! Aren't the colors marvelous!

Silk Scarves and Cotton Hand-dyed Piece

Yes, I'm still around and still working on art and dyeing! I finally got a chance to dye up some scarves. This is the Fall Series and based mostly on fall earthy colors with undertones of jewel colors. They are all for sale. The sizes listed are approximate. Enjoy and if there is anything that you would like to purchase please contact me by private email. All prices include shipping.
