ICAD update! June 4th thru 19th

I'm still hanging in there with the ICADs. Some days I want to give up but I'm trying to keep on going. It keeping me committed. Below are more ICADS dating from Jun4 to the 19th. I still have yesterdays and todays to do . I just was so busy with work that I wasn't able to make something yesterday but its Saturday so I take do both today.

I didn't follow the prompts so much early on but I started to pay more attention after the Beatles card (bottom right)
I really like the top left card. Well actually I like them all:)

Father's Day was stuck in there and that one was fun to do, particularly the watercolor background. I got a lot of good response on IG and FB for the Toy Camera card, it struck a chord with a lot of people. that was a surprise.

The orange flowers were tricky. I wanted to move away from my micron markers and try some india ink. The paper of the index card is a disaster to work with but I am going to keep trying. Maybe I need to gesso the card. not sure, I've got to test that out.

 

I hope you like having a look and I'm having a good time doing these. Making art everyday is the cure for a lot of things! Most importantly it get me out of my head.

Happy Saturday!

Weekend Work

I was able to get alot of painting done this weekend.

 

...and drawing too. The backyard had alot of good pickings.

 

 

Good stuff.
 

The dandelions have taken over this year,

either that or they have just caught my attention.

 

 I found a good organic weed killer recipe and am going to test that out. But not before I got a chance to paint them ;)

 I received mail this past week and found the pattern book from Ankepanke. She held a pattern contest and the winners received a sample booklet.

My page is to the right.

 

Well that's all for today and I hope everyone is having a great week. A day left til the weekend!

Take care,

Fran T xo
