I am participating in the Index-Card-a-Day Challenge. I finished the month of June with two more Scripture passages.
Day 29:
Day 30:
For the month of July, I’ll be merging ICAD with World Watercolor Month, whose goal is to make a watercolor painting every day in July. I’ll be painting on index cards in the spirit of ICAD.
I don’t think I’ve done any watercolor since last July.
Day 31/1–the prompt is primary palette. A beach ball is an obvious choice for a red/yellow/blue palette. I also mixed the blue with white for the shadow, and then decided I needed a background, so I blended the light blue with gray. Too much gray. Note to self: in the future, paint the background first.
Day 32/2–the prompt is sunny sky. If my sky seems a little intense, it’s because after three service calls, our air conditioner died, and we had no AC in the Arizona desert for four days. The temperature outside on July 1 was 110; inside was 97. Fortunately, a new unit was installed Tuesday, and our house is much more hospitable now.
Day 33/3–the prompt is picnic food, but I never got beyond the tablecloth. You know how when you put a tablecloth down on the grass, it’s never smooth? That’s the effect I was going for.
Day 34/ 4–I went off-prompt. I painted the background, and when it dried, I tangled two Zentangle patterns, Cindyer and Poa.
Day 35/5–the prompt is loose & free. I tried to paint a picture of a girl whose long sun-streaked hair was hanging loose and free down her back.
It’s not too late to join in the fun! ICAD and World Watercolor Month run through the end of July.
Love your cards. Betty
