I thought looking at a blank page in a brand new sketchbook was scary. It has nothing over looking at a blank (1st) page of a blog.
I plan on this blog on being my journey of learning how to watercolor and other creative things I do. The watercolor is the motivator on this page though. I want to tell you about my felting and knitting and my silk painting also. Most of all the sketchbook journaling that I have just started.
I signed up for this class called Sketchbook Skool. It started on Friday 4/4/14. These first days of doing assignments has changed me. I just want to draw and paint everyday. I post my things online in a couple of Facebook groups. There are several I have joined but only three I post on.
They are:
Journal52-this is a group designed to do a journal page once a week. The admin of the group comes up with a title and you would journal something that fits the title. This weeks title is Rain or Shine. I did a landscape of a rain shower moving through a valley over some mountains.
When I posted this I got several likes and even a couple of people said they liked it and I had done a good job. What do you think?
The next group is Everyday Matters-This group has 386 different challenges and in this one I did the number one challenge of drawing some shoes.
This is much more to my liking. I am the type of person who needs the control of the subject. The first one was to wishy washy for me to really like.
The next group is Sketchbook Skool - This group is comprised of teachers for this school and every past and present student associated with Danny Gregory. He is the main man in the class and has a extensive following who on the most part all part of this group. For this group I posted a watercolor of part of our back yard. This was really like as well.
The teacup and scones were very well accepted and got lots of positive feedback. I really thought this come out nice also I really like this one.
These two I am not very proud of. I did some very helpful suggestions that I hope this next pic will show a better attempt at pen to paper with NO color.

Okay was having trouble with post this pic but now back on course.
The final posts I have done are the ones for the Klass it self. The next three are in order of appearance on the site.
Well It getting late and I think my husband thinks I am going to starve him to death. Not to bad for the first post. Hope someone will actually read this. Take care and keep drawing.
