Color Throwdown #580 & The Flower Challenge #41

This used to be my favorite color combination, (purple & green + gray) not sure why I stopped using it, cause I like the outcome.

This is a card for two challenges

CAS Watercolour February 2020

So the best way for me to do a card for the CAS Watercolour is to just do a wash of color for a background.  I just have trouble with my watercoloring.  

This is a red wash using my Gansai Tambi watercolors.

The stamp set is Gina K. Inspiring Poppies

Day 1, 2 & 3 The Coloring Challenge Road Trip On-Line Class with Kathy Racoosin

Days 1 & 2

Plucking Colors not in the same color family 

and using color pencils to enhance in the nooks and crannies.  I need a lot of work on this.  I used a red color pencil on the first flower and a brown one on the second one.  I have trouble getting thin lines.  Also struggle leaving a white (sweet) spot.

The second picture is adding some white dots.

Day 2

I tried using different color plucking and like this one better, but it still needs work.

Kathy Racoosin says to be fearless.  I tried some white lines trying to be fearless.  Ugh.

Days 2 & 3

We worked on the face on Day 2 and then went on to the dress. 

Finished on Day 3.

I like how this turned out better. 

Another Day 3 project using Critters and using Colorless Blender for texture by putting it on a small piece of  wash cloth.

I think he turned out pretty cute.

It was a fun class with lots of tips to enhance your coloring.  Kathy always wants you to color at least 10 minutes a day to help improve your coloring.
