Water Media Wednesday – Episode 8 – “Do whatever it takes to let your spirit soar”

This page was super fun! …after it was difficult. This was the 3rd project in one day in an attempt to create for Water Media Wednesday – Episode 8. Both of the previous projects that day got ruined 🙁

However, no need to give up. I was distracted by all the media and news and quarantine and getting dopey from being cooped up. I didn’t give up. I would encourage you to do the same. In each project, in the very last steps, I layed my hand in black archival ink in one project and it got all over the page (trash) The second one, I used a glitter paint pen and though I had dried it, when I went into finish, the ink bled outside of the lines of my project (trash)

I hope you enjoyed the watercolor process. My mood, as of late has caused me to turn more to the subtleties of watercolor. It has been nice 🙂
