Recently, Hubs added to my pencil collection by getting me a 12 pack of Prismacolor Premiers to try. I must say first off that I am rough on things. As much as I would love to keep things in mint condition, I tend to break, dent, or otherwise damage my materials.
After doing some research on my…

I have spent the last few days, not making art so much, but practicing my gradients, lines, and hold. I recently posted in the Beginner's group forum that my hold was atrocious. It was causing my fingers to go numb.
The best way I could think to practice was to make pencil swatches. As a friend was so proud to tell me, that's easy. Why yes, yes it was. My response was that sometimes things should be easy.
While struggle and mistakes may grow your artistic ability, practicing…

Hi. I haven’t posted anything lately because of tight schedule of video production. So I have gathered a lot of useful information.
First of all I want to share my excitement about new brushes. I have bought for the first time in my life professional artist brushes for watercolors. Thick ones.

Just joined and looking forward to learning so much. I’m a total noob to art. I’ve taken two art classes in earlier years, but quit because “I wasn’t good enough.” Speaking honestly, I never gave it a chance, because I couldn’t get it perfect right away and the mess. I was recently diagnosed with OCD, which makes many things including my art experiences make much more sense.
I’m a stay-at-home mom with two small children that dreams of children’s books, games, and apps. I decided that…
