I haven't been as busy with painting this week, as I have in the last couple weeks. But I still would say that it was a pretty productive week, art wise! :)
Attempted painting my own still life. Lol. Grapes are harder to paint than originally anticipated... haha. Strawberries went okay... But couldn't really figure out how to get the depth into the plate. Ah well. Practice, yah?
Got my Moleskine! So happy! I think it's going to be the perfect size for some outside studies! :)
The first thing I did in my Moleskine. Label it! Hahaha.
My first "real" entry into my Art Journal. Husband bought me my favorite German chocolate bar. :) Yummo.
Decided that since I have seen a lot of watercolorist paint their palettes, I thought it would be a good idea. I can see that it would be helpful to gauge the colors. :)
Been dreaming about Oxfords for a while now. I feel like they would be the best accessory to get me out of my clothing 'comfort' zone. I usually just wear my converse, jeans, and a tee... But I want to get out of JUST that. I want to wear other things, I am just afraid of people judging or making fun of me. I want to wear skinny jeans, but am too afraid to try them on. I am planning on going out of my comfort zone today, and finding some Oxfords and a pair of skinny jeans. That's the plan, Stan.
I also am working on something else, but it is a present for my friend, for her Wedding. So, you will have to wait until next weekend.
Also, today, I am going to try to find some Microns at the mall/downtown, if they don't have them around here, I will travel into Nürnberg (45 mins away) to the craft store that I have heard of (Idee) hopefully they'd have them there. If not, I will be ordering them off Amazon. lol.
I am still contemplating opening my own Etsy shop, but I need to find a local printing place I think. I don't just want to sell originals, you know? Also, I will need to get my "Home based business license" from the Army (well, our Garrison) so that I can "operate" a business out of my home. The Army has some crazy rules. I was thinking about using a print agency online, but, I wouldn't be able to take the best photos for that process, and I wouldn't be able to mail it to my APO address, I would have to mail it to my German address, which could cost more in shipping, so that's why I want to find someplace locally.
Thanks for stopping by and checking out my art today! I appreciate your visit!
