Doodling - learning to colour an image.


This week in the Clarity SHAC shack, we have been learning to colour a postcard sized image.  Using Perga Liners and colouring pencils (whatever we had).     You think you know how to colour, and probably like many of you, I have colouring books that I dip into every now an again, but had I been colouring correctly.   I think not.

Above is my the start of my attempt to colour the nuthatch - I had a lot to learn about blending.   I got slightly carried away and started on the tree.  Erm .........


then I learned to do it properly.

There was another stage doing the leaves, which I forgot to take a photo of !   ......   and finally we learned to do a night sky.   Not brilliant, but a good learning curve.   I need more practise on my blending.  I might have been better doing a lighter sky!


Onwards and upwards as they say, and count a day lost you don't learn something new!   Can't wait to see what next week brings!
