Not exactly abstract, but I had a whole lot of fun layering mountains.
Also was very happy with how the sky colors turned out.

I started a new class with the always fabulous @laurahornart.bsky.social
First sketches for abstract landscape and textures.
Very fun, very relaxing (ok, minus me finding out the new paper hates my standard tape…)
Cannot wait to do more exercises.

Back to my sketchbook and watercolors.
First layer down for some abstract mini-compositions.
It‘s a very fun, relaxing exercise. Just take a colored pencil and scribble. This becomes the area for your color blobs on top.

Hommage to a place very dear to me - Holmsland Klit in Denmark.
To the north sea and dune landscapes, to wind and wide views.

Did I like my sketches today? Not particularly, no.
BUT: I like that I took the time for art practice and my sketchbooks. And I like small things in those to note and repeat.
Always reminding myself - the path to good art leads through bad art.

More Watercolor Marker Testing
I was wondering how fast you need to work before you will always have staining from your original marker strokes remaining.
Result: It‘s best to lay down a patch and directly activate it. Also peculiarly some colors change vibrancy/ tone if you wait to long.

I got new toys… watercolor markers.
I had already used pencils and crayons, but never markers. They are SO FUN!

I finally get around to trying my new watercolor.
After years with pans I got some tubes for my birthday.
Definitely takes getting used to, but loving it so far.

Sketchbook experiments.
Part of my mixed media course lessons was to try out things we typically don‘t choose.
As I like rounded shapes, I challenged myself to use lots of sharp angles. 😄
And a rather unusually bold color scheme. Lots of fun!
Watercolor and ink pens.

Human water is the best water - period!
Even though I have my own two (!) glasses.
Even though sometimes it is full of chemicals from watercolors or pool testing kits.
Even though it requires a deep dives into the glass.
It will ALWAYS be the best water!

When you try to be too sneaky to get into the forbidden bathroom…
…and your big human brother closes the door on his way out…
Then after finally being rescued by mommy you totally need snuggle time under daddy‘s blanket!
And how is your morning going?

How about a new family car?
When your trusted old compact van would cost way too much to repair and you suddenly have to go on a spontaneous x-mas car shopping trip…

The weather is cold and wet. Put in several complains with the humans. They did nothing!
But at least I got a new play tunnel to get cozy…
