This is an exciting day on WOYWW
as it is the week of the big ATC Swap,
Happy 3rd Anniversary Julia.
Happy 3rd Anniversary Julia.
I have painted 5 ATC's as per
requests and they will be
winging their way around the world shortly.
Due to a very nasty tummy bug
that has been living with me for the last few days,
I haven't done very much this week
and to make it worse,
I have to go out Thursday and
Friday, so not much chance
of finishing anything.
I spent this morning finishing the last ATC
and then started on this.
Now, I can hear you saying what on earth is that mess,
well it is the first layer of a close up of
a water droplet on a flower (this weeks APR theme is magnify)
and yes it looks pretty horrible at the moment.
At this stage I just want to get an idea of the
lights and darks.
Then again you could say it's an
abstract of some bananas!
You can just see my last ATC
peeking out from the paper towel.
Just a quick post this week
as I have to get a move on with this painting.
Only two afternoons left to finish it.
Hope the person next to me enjoys
my ATC, it will be the rose.
To see the other desks around the world this Wednesday
and to see who gets who's Atc's
hop on over to visit Julia
Morning Von, so sorry to hear about your bug...I've got mine here too :(
ReplyDeleteAnyway, I'm not sure how this ATC swop goes but I'll be watching all the fun with the swopathon.
Maybe I'll know what its all about and be ready to take part next year...if I'm still blogging.
Wow you're 'magnify' artwork is looking good already ~ banana's my foot!
I probably won't get to the playroom this week. My bug has magnified my head to x10 so I'll just look on in wonder.
Enjoy the swops ~ Happy WOYWW ;D

no fun that you aren't well but magnify is coming along well anyway... I always like everything at the blocking in stage... it is when I add detail that I can get into trouble, but you handle tone beautifully so it won't be a hassle... I have been working on magnify all afternoon as well...xx
ReplyDeleteso sorry you had the lergy too... horrible isn't it??
ReplyDeletebut the painting is gorgeous - the light and the dark shades are working great!!

Good morning, I was looking at the APR magnify theme myself. Your piece is looking very good I'm impressed.
ReplyDeleteHave a lovely jubilee week.
Only positive thing about tummy bugs is the weight loss. Get well soon.

ReplyDeleteHello Von, sorry to read that you haven't been well, here's wishing you a speedy recovery. Love the photo of the flower - there's something about water droplets on petals and leaves that does it for me :) Good luck with the painting, I bet it will look fab when you've finished ut. Happy WOYWW and enjoy what's left of the day. Elizabeth x #96
ReplyDeleteI hope you show the finished waterdrop painting! I am so envious of people who have the talent to paint. Hope you feel better soon. #134

Sorry to hear you have been unwell. Loving that water drop on the flowers. I don't think they look like bananas.
ReplyDeleteHappy WOYWW Party!

Sorry to hear that you are ill. We're finally bug free in our home; we passed that nastiness back and forth ad nauseaum. I definitely don't see bananas in your unfinished art. I do see leaves though, and sure enough I can see flower petals when prompted. Good luck painting that water droplet. That looks complicated.
ReplyDeleteI hope your tummy feels better soon! Your painting is beautiful!
ReplyDeleteKatie (38)
Vonny I sure hope you feel better soon! That watercolor is shaping up beautifully, I can't wait to see it finished and I just have to say your boy Charlie is a beauty! Happy 3rd WOYWW Anniversary!
ReplyDeletegreat desk,the painting looks lovely. The mess we are all used to but what on earth is the (rather rude) looking thing outside the window !!!!
ReplyDeletejanet #43
Super painting in progress, i think it looks kinda abstract like it is.

Hope you are feeling better now. The picture is looking great and it's so interesting seeing work in progress - I look forward to seeing the finished piece.
ReplyDeleteHave a great week
Happy 3rd WOYWW! Hope your tummy is better now! I hate being ill. Love your colorful desk. I would have loved swapping ATC with you...Sorry I am late getting around but figure it is better late then never. Have a great week. Vickie #178
ReplyDeleteSorry to hear you have been unwell I do hope you have improved by now. Love your flower petals in progress but I am curious as to how that water droplet comes out.
ReplyDeleteHappy 3rd Anniversary WOYWW
