I did already!! I made up my mind to do a painting of a lion using my bestest makeup products. Of course, when I went to use the lipstick, I found them all hard as rocks. Hmmmmm… Oh well. At least my other colours haven’t dried out completely, and of course, powders never dry out or go hard!!! Leo the Lion (such an original name, I know) was created for the “Mr Squiggle Challenge”: http://www.redbubble.com/groups/make-up-your-mind/challenges/4927-mothers-day-challenge-mr-squiggle in the group Make up your MInd Karin drew a scribble and we all have to use makeup and paint a picture. I really enjoyed doing this!! I so love drawing :D The products I used… mineral powder foundation, sparkly blush powder, mascara, lip liner, lipgloss (my lipsticks were all dead… hard as rocks), concealer, green concealer, eyeliner, eye colour stuff (squeezy sponge applicator ones). All painted and spattered onto A3 art paper. Here are a few piccies showing my totally professional process!!! / / Now you all have to go and have a go at this fun painting style… Even you MT and Samedog… I’m sure you have Mums or Sisters or girlfriends you can borrow from!!!

Pastel Painters” thanks to Moderators , check out their absolutely incredible fabulous art! / Alice McMahon“ and Valerie Simms >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> / The Cry of the Curlew by Peter Watt / The Cry of the Curlew from a fictional novel but based on fact, is very involved ..In the early days of white people occupying and taking over the indigenous people’s land in outback Australia the native aboriginals were considered vermin and there was a determined effort to make them extinct, one way to do this was to poison their waterholes.;hence the two figures in the waterhole.I did this in similar way rock art is drawn, the legend is whenever there is a death the bush curlew cries I haven’t heard one, but they only cry when distressed and apparently the sound is really long mournful and once heard not forgotten.

I have recently joined the group Works on Paper and was inspired to look through my paper collection. / My degree specialism was in Fine Art Printmaking and I was lucky enough to win the Paper Prize during my Degree Show exhibition. This meant I won a significant amount of money with which to purchase paper – fantastic! / Since my degree I have unfortunately not had access to printmaking equipment for various reasons – mostly money! (how sad!) and so I still have a beautiful collection of papers. / I thought they were deserving of a journal entry. / My all-time favourite paper Velin Arches Noir 250gsm / A French mould-made paper for printmaking and commercial print. / Internally sized / 100% cotton / Watermarked / Four deckled edges. / Acid free and calcium carbonate buffered. / Velin Arches Noir is a very deep, positively stygian Black. / / My Favourite Papers for Etching/Intaglio Somerset Soft White 300gsm / Mould-made, 100% cotton / Acid free, 4 deckle edges / 3 surface textures / Satin / Textured / Velvet / Hahnemuhle Etching / Mould-made, alpha cellulose pulp, acid free / Soft sized, watermarked as indicated (wm) / Deckle edges / Textured surface BFK Rives Blanc / Mould-made, 100% cotton / Internally sized, acid free / Watermarked, 4 deckle edges / Matt surface / BFK Rive Tints 280 gsm Grey / Mouldmade in France by ArjoWiggins / 100% cotton rag, neutral pH, buffered / Watermarked / Internally sized for controlled absorption / Vellum surface / Two natural deckles and two tear deckles Moulin du Gue / Mould-made, 85% cotton, 15% linen / Acid free, watermarked / 4 deckle edges / Not surface / (with wet strength) Heritage / Fourdriniermade paper / Vellum surface / Alpha Cellulose Woodpulp / Acid free / Sized with Aquapel and surface sized with starch / Lightfast. / My Favourite Silkscreen Paper/s Arches 88 / Mould-made, 100% cotton / Waterleaf (unsized) / Acid free, watermarked / 4 deckle edges / Smooth surface / / My Favourite Drawing/ Painting papers Montval Aquarelle Acid Free 300gsm Fabriano Accademia Rolls / 100% woodfree / Surface sized / 200 gsm / 1.5×10m / / other papers I use Cartridge 96/110gsm Acid Free Tissue Paper Sugar papers various Greaseproof paper Tracing paper Japanese Fibre Papers

Thursday is my teaching day and I really enjoy it. I have a small studio so I only have one or two students which really makes it a intense experience. My goal is to impart everything I have learned and when I feel they have absorbed that much I encourage them to move on to another teacher to learn different ideas and techniques. Some I have had to give a gentle push as we always become friends. My first must is using the best paper you can afford. You can’t make a good painting on poor paper. Beginners don’t want to “waste” good paper but I find they get discouraged if they don’t. My experience has been most people don’t know how to draw…they don’t seem to be able to look at something and put that down on paper. Perspective of course is always a challenge. I know there are lots of artists who feel drawing isn’t important… to me it is the bones of your painting. I usually stick with the primary colors so they can’t make mud as easily and also to learn that you don’t need alot of paints to work with. I have found alot of people “dab” with their brush and teaching them to use the brush to its fullest potential is always an eye opener :) Load it up and use the whole brush. Alot like to copy from another artist’s work out of a book..I try to discourage that..use it as color reference perhaps but put it away and you will eventually develop your own style. I find mixing greens and not using the green out of the tube to be one of the best lessons…trees and leaves are not all green. Well it is Thursday morning and my student is about to arrive… another fun morning.

My LINE Hoody make Shin said “They look so crazy!”, and “Your works are very original.”, Thanks Shin for the good template design character model. Really cool experience for design them on his work, COOL!

A clean brush in painting is probably the most important thing an artist can do to ensure colors are vivid in a painting. This seems obvious when it comes to acrylics and watercolors, because you use water to clean you brush. But when it comes to oils and those artists that like to paint using the fat over lean technique, I have found that toilet paper is the best brush cleaner when working between colors during a single sitting. Paper towels are excessively too big, napkins float all over the place, but toilet paper is just right. I usually work with a hand full of brushes during each sitting, and don’t have enough room for a ton of brushes to be lying around, so as I’m working and decide to change colors, I’ll use toilet paper to remove the excess paint, take a quick dip into the brush cleaner (I use Mona Lisa’s brush cleaner and restorer), and another piece of toilet paper to dry off the brush cleaner.
