A big oops this WOYWW

Here's my desk this week

I have new goodies.

A camera bag to help stop getting paint on my camera,

A new blank drawing book,

a Doctor Who Watch inside the box,

my thumb (I get bored waiting at school pickup)

and a DVD by my teacher

(more on that later in the post).

 I had one of those weeks.

A blonde week you could say.

On monday I decided to 

ink my pelican canvas 

in my new desk area.

It started okay

But went down hill from there

I kept looking at it thinking 

something isn't right but couldn't put my finger on it.

Then, when it was too late to do anything about it,

I realised I had forgotten to put the white ink on

and it was all dark and clear and yukky

and blah.

 Never fear, my fabulous teacher

came to the rescue.

With a slop here and a dash there

 it's looking better already.

(Sorry, photo taken on my phone)

Still a long way to go and my teacher

did ninety percent of the large scale glooping.

I'm a newbie glooper and not too good 

on the big stuff. It tends to fall off of my

knife and looks more like a pelican poo

than a water ripple.

I often talk about my teacher but I've never

told you about her.

Her name is De Gillett, she's just as mad as me

(that's why we get on so well)

and is a fabulous artist that I aspire to.

If you want to learn to ink like me

go to Under the Arts Tree and you can 

buy the dvd (first in a series).

It's fab and fun and if I can ink

anyone can! 

Just remember to add the white ink!!

I did a bit more to my sunset canvas too

 Actually, looking at this photo,

the horizon looks like it's going up towards the boat.

Oh poo, guess I should go and check the canvas

(hope it's just my bad photography). 

My art progression into the lounge went a little backwards

this week.  It was raining and I had to put my washing

in there, no photos cos you don't need to see

my knickers hanging up!

That's me for this weeks
