woyww - mushrooms and a cat

Hoping you all had a delightful Christmas. Always hard to get a family pic on the day.

Painting mushrooms for this months tutorial and I had to add some variety as button mushrooms are far to boring.  

Kitty likes her Christmas collar.

woyww - painting shapes on a dog

Busy busy couple of weeks and not a lot of time to post for woyww.  Finally got to post something today, not often I get to paint a dog.  A last minute request from DD.   I am almost finished just have to add a few whiskers and touch up fur.  If I don't post it now another week will fly by and I miss woyww.  

Promise to visit lots of desks over the weekend.

Enjoy.

woyww - slow painting of a rose

Making slow progress on painting the rose, now up to the dark bits.  At this stage it is going to look like an ugly duckling for awhile longer.

Hope your desk is more interesting.  

woyww - a rose and a kookaburra

Underpainting of a rose with lots of ruffled petals sits on my desk this Wednesday.  Hopefully I will get some time this weekend to shift it from pink to deep burgundy.

The completed kookaburra (Dacelo novaeguineae).  He turned out to be a fine fellow sitting happily while I painted every little feather!

A lovely catch up with RosA today and now sitting here admiring all the texture 

goodies she has made.

Have a lovely woyww.

woyww - leaves and a kookaburra

October has been a busy month and I found short bursts of time to finish the leaves.  

Started painting the Kookaburra on Sunday.

Plan to visit lots of desks over the weekend.

Happy woyww.

woyww - green leaf and a pink lily

My desk looks far too dark to be painting a leaf with all those intricate veins.

Completed Lily.

 Final pic is from the travels.
