I’m Glad I Went up When I Did

I was thinking of going back up to the land this weekend, but I’m having second thoughts. This was tonight’s weather forecast:

I redrew the bear with water color pencils:

Then I went over it with a wet paintbrush. It smooths out the pencil marks.

    Yes, the second one looks much better! This seems like a trick that only an artist would know!

  2. yep that’s the idea with water color pencils you can smooth out your lines and fill in your filling 🙂

    we are having what seems like a few fine days

    Cute! The child that was me is doing a happy dance at Saturday night’s forecast.

  7. Love the expression on the first bear’s face and the fuller bodied paint on the second one.

    Never used water color pencils, but they did a nice job on your cute bear. We were just below freezing this morning but the temps are going back up tomorrow. The flowers were covered last night and survived. The pups LOVE the cooler air

  9. It’s going to be too darn cold here tonight. Such a cute bear.

    Oh my, low of 27. That’s cold. I know it’s coming but I’m not ready for that yet.
    Your little bear is so cute. I have watercolor pencils, I should pull them out and play around with them some.

  11. Oh my, that weather is not good.
    Love your bear!

    yikes, that is way to cold today we got down to 59 but it is in mid 80’s now. I like this bear. I used the iPad for drawing doodles and crazy stuff while we sat in the dark at night for 6 nights with nothing to do, some I kept some I erased.
