I also would also like to mention that I had a great time yesterday morning, giving a watercolor demonstration to a high school art class on illustration. My long-time friend and former-co-worker, Bill, invited me in to show his students some techniques for an editorial cartoon lesson they are working on. Hopefully they learned some things in between our hysterical laughter! Bill and I go back a long way and I must say, have pretty good comedic timing with each other. :) He's an amazing teacher and they are a very talented group of kids, so together I'm sure their final pieces will be magic! :) So thank you to Bill and his class -- it was a great morning!
Have a great day and thank you for stopping by.
I would love to see you manage to make such beautiful, accurate, detailed flower petals, and still keep them so delicate. I fix little things, and when I step back, all of a sudden, overworked is the first word that comes to mind. Enchanting. I really WOULD take a workshop if I were closer to your neighborhood.
ReplyDeleteThank you, Katherine. I constantly struggle with overworking things, so I appreciate your comment. :)
Deletestunning work Kara - I wish I had the patience to work on details like you do and I wasn't so slapdash - really beautiful!
ReplyDeleteIt is gorgeous--the threads are amazing; and I love the colors and the composition.
ReplyDeleteI must work on finding work on details relaxing (instead of anxiety-producing)!

Spent reading here, and visit his blog.
I also have one, only much simpler.
I'm inviting you to visit me, and if possible follow together for them and with them. I always liked to write, expose and share my ideas with people, regardless of class Social, Religious Creed, the Sexual Orientation, or, of Ethnicity.
To me, what will interest is our exchange of ideas, and, thoughts.
I'm there in my space Simpleton, waiting for you.
And I'm already following your blog.
Strength, Peace, Friendship and Happiness
For you, a hug from Brazil.

Kara, one of your responders mentioned "paintings have feelings too" and this inspires me to go back and see what damage I've done by leaving an unfinished watercolor! Your work is awesome and very fresh. Thanks for sharing.

Thank you Barbara! I really like your collages. You can always use an unfinished watercolor in one of your collages and then it will feel very loved again! :)
DeleteThis is simply glorious! I lose myself in the top of the glass jar - the colours and the depiction of the glass is so opulent!
