Sketching in the Park

A Saturday morning spent sketching in Veteran's Park,

Arlington, Texas. Several artists met and enjoyed the

cool breeze off the duck pond and sketched ducks,

the walking path, trees and foliage in the park.

Those who came out to sketch were Cindy, Sharon,

Phil and myself. Pictured below are Barbara, Vern, Cliff,

Nancy and Suzanne.

Today was the first day of a three day workshop at

the Fort Worth Woman's Club. Our instructor is

Tina Bohlman, a well know watercolorist from

Waxahachie, Texas. Tina is an accomplished oil painter

as well. Kathline McKinney, the workshop chairman had

several still life settings around the room. The one I chose had

a ginger jar that had been her mother's.

We drew thumbnail sketches for value studies then painted

our still life paintings. Great time. Looking forward to more painting

with Tina. Vist again soon to see more paintings from the workshop.

There is a beautiful Japanese Tulip Tree outside the window at the Fort Worth

Woman's Club where I teach watercolor classes. Every spring we are

amazed at the beautiful blooms on this tree before any leaves appear

on the tree. The color of these blossoms are rose, pink and white.

God's color pallette in the spring is breathtaking!!!!

Paintings with Plastic Wrap Texture

Both my Woman's Club Watercolor Classes and

The Upstairs Gallery Watercolor Classes have been

experimenting with watercolor and plastic wrap to

create unusual textures. Some of the textures

created look like trees in a forest, some ocean waves and

others like cliffs in a landscape.

The following are a few of my demo paintings

painted in classes this past week.

TIE PURSES, "CP" Collection

TIE PURSES, "CP" Collection

These small hand bags are made out of neck ties that were

given to me by my step dad, or what I called him, "bonus pop", CP.

Each purse is made out of three ties. The tie tips of two

and the small end of another tie connects them. The strap is made from

one of the ties that was used. These are great fun to make. The

hardest part is cutting up a pretty silk tie.

A great project for recycling neck ties.
