I've been so carried away with pastel pencil art that I've done no cards for weeks but I have managed to finish a quilt top.... but of course now the weather has become too hot to quilt it!
So this is what I've been up to. It's another of Colin Bradley's lessons - The Old Barn. I've changed it a bit by removing the bath tub, mainly because I'd stuffed up the pallet and tyres on the right and didn't want to ruin the picture further. I also didn't do a very good job on the barrel.
I've nearly finished a snow scene and will post that next week. I'm becoming more confident now which is partly what led to the stuff ups on this because I've been anticipating his next move and not actually following his instructions closely enough. But I'm taking that as a good sign, because in the main, I'm doing pretty much what he is doing, one step ahead of him. With each picture though, I'm learning something new, so the plan is to keep going until I run out of Colin's landscapes and then embark on some of my own.
