Illustrations d'hiver à l'aquarelle : 3 projets amusants pour des cartes de Noël

I love the little twig, it looks so realistic!

Thank you Stefani. I used Burnt Sienna then went back later and used some Burnt Umber for some contrast. I really like your projects! They turned out really nice. I am getting ready to do the birdies and candle too!

First one finished. Ready to start the next one. Thank you Nina this was fun and helped me get back into painting after many months of selling my place, having to put my dog to sleep 16 years of age, and moving! Used Dr. Ph Martins bleed proof white. I bought white pens but the size is way too thin. I bought 03 in black and I think that may be a good size for white pens. Any suggestions on point size?

Hi Patti! Glad to hear from you and enjoy seeing your Christmas Bauble! It is gorgeous! Beautiful shades used in the branch, tonal values are perfect and I love how you have combined warm and cool shades!

And I love this tiny starry texture you got on your bauble, from fine salt or citric acid?It adds the volume! 

As for the pens, I use brand Uni and in black size 03 is very fine. The white pen which I use is Uni-ball Signo white BROAD and it´s about 1mm wide, not less for sure (make sure to have that "Broad" written on the cap, because the normal size is too thin to be noticeable. However, it seems that Dr. Ph Martins white is the whitest!! 

Patti, I am glad that you are back to painting! I can imagine how much stress you have experienced with changing your home and even more losing your beloved dog. I do hope that getting into painting mood will help you to transform your feelings and to recover, indeed painting cures and helps to reconnect with yourself. 

Sending you my best wishes, let the joy of painting get back to you! :)

Thank you Nina for the feedback and info on the pens. I actually used the plastic wrap, but I am not very good at it. Actually this has been the best look from the plastic wrap that I have tried. I can't keep it down on the paper even though it was still wet. LOL May I post on instagram these paintings? I will give you credit of course! Would I use your Instagram name or just reference Skillshare and your name on Skillshare? Let me know if its ok. thank you and will hopefully post another today! Also, you are very good teacher and I am learning much from you. Much appreciation.

Hi Patti! Merry Christmas! It is such a joy to see your other projects. They are very beautiful and cute, full of warmth :) the middle robin is so cheeky &lt;3! Lovely projects! So soft light coming from candle and generally transmits warmth. Thank you very much for sharing!
