Inspiration Wednesday - Weeks 3 & 4

I've really busy lately and haven't had a spare moment to post, so today is catchup day.

Week 3
This week our pages were supposed to look 'painterly' meaning that brush strokes and the red under coat are supposed to be showing. I wasn't crazy about this technique but the idea behind Inspiration Wednesday is to get out of your comfort zone so I jumped right in.

Donna's pages were of three lemons. I just couldn't do three lemons so I added my own inspiration, tequila and salt.

Week 4

As you can see we're still painting lemons, this week with another twist.  The lemon and the shadow on the first page was made with washi tape then painted. the lemon on the second page was brown craft paper then painted.

So now I'm officially caught up on my Inspiration Wednesday posts I can move onto my Wanderlust pages.

Inspiration Wednesday - Week 2

When Donna said we were going to paint a mug I laughed.  SHE was going to paint a mug. I would be lucky if mine resembled a mug.

Much to my surprise painting the mug was much easier than adding the light and shadows. After walking away from the finished pages and coming back later I've decided that I like my pages. I'm happy that I tried and did better than I thought I would.

On to week 3 and lemons....
