my Eclectic Endeavours

I was introduced to ink wash in one of my life drawing classes and figured it was most likely the closest to watercolor. Throughout my entire life span, I can not recall ever being taught to watercolor. I decided it was long overdue. Since this is my experimental phase, I figured I'd start with the most economically, yet decent set of watercolors: Crayola 8 ct Washable Watercolors. Shh... don't laugh. Eventually I'll move myself up to Winsor & Newton Artists' Watercolors. I gotta make sure I like the idea first. ;o)

My first attempt was pretty blah!

I was more pleased with my next attempt and it began to truly seduce me. ;o)

Here's my Ode to voting. It's a pen and watercolor combination.

Here's another pen and watercolor combination.
