Just a reminder that this birdie in the teacup is on my Ebay for just a short time.
Absorbent Ground... it allows me to paint with watercolors on any surface. Watercolors need something to sink into, not like acrylics that just sit on top of a surface. So this Ground is perfect. I did a little research on it, seems like it works best if your surface is coated with gesso first. I used Goldens Molding paste on these too, to add a little more texture...wouldn't want anything looking to flat.lol.

Beautiful artwork. I had not been to visit you before but once you left that sweet comment on my birds nests I had to come over to see you! Thank you for your kind words. I will be back when I get some rest.

how lovely the painting is.. love all of them especially the one that has bird nest.. so beautiful! have a great weekend! happy PS
These are absolutely adorable: charming, wistful... without being sickly cute (I hate cute, lol). I love your header, and the icing on the cake for me was your advice on absorbent ground. I have had a pot for 2 years, and couldn't remember what I bought it FOR! Someone did say online it's good for prepping thin papers (eg: for journals) and of course I was trying with acrylics - and not impressed with the result.
So now I know why - and I'm so grateful! Thank you for posting this. http://www.sainsburys.com/groceries/index.jsp?bmUID=1246172637672

Hi Laurie! Nice work! I've been thinking about classes in ANYTHING new lately. I just plan to keep an eye open for night classes or online classes even! Love the bird and teacup pincushion!! Happy Pink Saturday and hope you have a wonderful week!
Happy belated pink Saturday. All of your creations are so pretty.
