Last Thursday, Art Clubbers and I had completed Part 2 of the quirky ZIA Rusty Fish class we started the week before. We used watercolors, graphite pencil, gel pen and colored pencils for shading and coloring.
Yesterday, Art Clubbers and I had Part 1 of the Rusty Fish class where we developed the line-art of this fun, quirky ZIA project. Part 2 class coming next week!
If you love brown pen “Renaissance” and whimsical characters, then this project is for you. The Zentangle Inspired Art Rusty fish has over two hours of recorded video showing how to shade using brown watercolors and pencils.
One more Sand Swirl watercolor piece. This is the last one, I promise! Also tangles Cadent and Squid over watercolor background.
Another piece using watercolor background: Cadent, Aquafleur and Sandswirl (Karry Heun). Sooooo much fun!
This video class is available at my Video Shop here. Learn how to use a watercolor background to tangle over, producing vibrant results in color!
I finally finished a couple of eco-dyed projects I had started a few months ago when we were playing with that lesson. Leaves and corn!
This is an insider picture: some interesting papers I “accidentally” made which look like tie-dye.
This wonderful lesson on how to create soothing and meditative “fantasy agates” is back again in the new lesson shop. It also shows you how to use controlled color palettes in your art without the pain of learning color theory.
