A bit of watercolouring

Thank you Joy, Marlene and Ann for your comments.  I don't need anything right now Marlene, but thank you for the offer.

I did 2 sympathy cards today:-



The second one was a black and white image I printed off the internet (a free images site).  I coloured the flowers using watercolour pencils, applying a bit of water with a brush to soften the edges.

It would be nice if I didn't need to send the cards, but it's useful to have them if required.

I'm liking doing drawing, having previously never done any artwork since I was in junior school!  Mum was a talented watercolour artist, something we didn't know about until just a few years ago - she kept that quiet!  So perhaps I've inherited her interest, if not her talent.  I think I'll be printing a few more images of flowers and things and experimenting with watercolours for card toppers.
