Hi Everyone!
I slept in today, didn't get up until 8:45 That is unheard of for me. I was having the best dreams though. For me a sign of a good sleep. :)
With that, I'm off my normal routine. I decide to watch some of the art videos that are accumulating in my email inbox.
After viewing them I thought I would share with you these two.
I've been watching this guy for sometime and he has some great advice and he is easy to comprehend.
The first one is on colored pencils
and the second is on graphite powder.
I have made my own graphite and charcoal powders. I find both quite messy and wasteful. If you have used either what are your thought on the powders?
Have a great day
Nicole

Thanks for sharing these videos. I'm going to save both of these for reference and to rewatch. My brain is a bit distracted, but what info I gleaned I found impressive and am eager to give these tricks a try. Right now, I'm trying to find time to work in painting with watercolors. I haven't really gotten a chance to truly delve into this like I want, but my plan is to make a birthday card for my sister soon.... I hope. Have a good afternoon, darlin'! xo
I don't have talent in art or crafts. I absolutely love the "Good morning" illustration, it made me smile!
Sometimes we need a sleep in ...
Many thanks for sharing the videos.
All the best Jan
...good for you, I slep in to 5am.

Não basta conhecer as técnicas, é necessário, também, ser artista.
Continuação de boa semana.
Abraço de amizade.

I enjoyed the colored pencil video, but the graphite powder seemed wasteful. Thanks for sharing. So glad you got lots of sleep.
I like a sleep in but with a kid at school and 6 cats I don't get it! :-D
Your sleep has done you good, Sweet dreams are a wonderful bonus.
A good night’s sleep is a wonderful thing!
How good it is to have a great sleep. My husband dreams and talks in his sleep, I listen as he is so plain when he speaks...often get a laugh.
I too sometimes watch drawing and painting videos.
I enjoy sleeping in, but I rarely get to do so.
I enjoyed the colored pencil video.
I love pencil drawing but don't have any drawing skills. I once had a co-worker who could draw anything and it looked so good. I have a watercolour that she made of a pelican, I had it framed and it's hanging on the wall.
Sometimes a good sleep in is good for the soul, especially if it makes the whole day slow easy and full of anything Arty. I'm off to watch the videos after I finish my catch up. hugs-Erika
I need to check out that video and share it with someone too!
Interesting videos, thanks. I've not come across powdered graphite before.
