Watercolour Lake

2023-01-10 day 211 of doing art every day for a year (mostly - I took sick days off).

I'm a bit behind in posting, so don't be surprised at a whole bunch of posts showing up in the next few days. 🤣

This is a Tatyworks watercolour tutorial. I learn a lot about Procreate and how I can use it with her tutorials. I've tried watercolours without her, and they were a mess. 🤣

2023-01-09 day 210 of doing art every day for a year (mostly - I took sick days off).

This is an experiment. I got a thick paint brush and wanted to take it for a spin, and this is the result.

Discovered during the week I was unable to access a Kindle book purchased in 2013. Reason? The order was “too old”, and refund issued to buy again. Which was pointless as the book is now more expensive than when I bought it.

Subsequently discovered 66(!!) other ebooks no longer available for download.

Currently 40 minutes in to a support chat with Amazon.

About to learn, I think, whether we purchase ebooks, or rent them…

The #ForbiddenCity, located in #Beijing, China, was the imperial palace for the Ming and Qing dynasties from the 15th to the early 20th centuries. The dragon head tiles are particularly noteworthy and are often carved in great detail, depicting the dragon's open mouth, curled whiskers, and fierce eyes.

Most of my embroidery is intuitive in that I pick colors and sometimes a stitch and then I just let the threads talk to each other. If anyone speaks “thread,” I’d love a translation cuz these had something to say.
