SUNDAY - This week began with my usual Weekly Morning Art Zoom. It was Roll the Dice day with the following prompts: favorite tool, pencil marks, map, dots, and orange...
Another roll presented the following prompts...
Black, tissue or napkin, favorite color, make marks, colored pencil:
After lunch Knittingsuek and I got together for our weekly Zoom call:
Once dinner was done, I took a FREE ombre acrylic Poppy painting class:
I used the excess paint for the "ellipse" ICAD prompt shown in the 2nd photo below:
MONDAY - Work was preceded by a bit of art. I added another layer to my Mini Muse Maker journal spread. I adapted the instructions from a FREE class with @delightrogers_art:
After work, I stopped by home (and Britt's house) before heading to my Monthly Quilt Guild meeting. Alas, car trouble sent me back to my house instead. I watched our speaker Kena Dorsey's presentation about Using African Fabrics in Quilts on my computer:
My favorite was this self-portrait pairing African fabrics with solid fabrics:
TUESDAY - I was off work today. You KNOW what that means, don't you?
Yep. A little bit of art was followed by errands and appointments. I added more watercolor marks to the CREATIVITY card below:
Fortunately, I got home with the groceries before these guys rolled in...
And blocked our driveway while delivering two loads of wallboard:
Since I was "trapped" at home, I work on the first layer of my "Impasto" Poppy painting. Can you see all the texture? The photo below shows how it looked at the end of the night:
WEDNESDAY - Day two of my mid-week weekend.
I'm not sure what kept me busy during the morning hours, but after lunch I met with LeeAnna @ Not Afraid of Color for our weekly Zoom session:
THURSDAY - Work...
Beforehand, I added some details to my latest Poppy painting. One more layer of paint is needed to fill in those stems:
I was excited to get off work early enough to attend Traci's Winging It hangout on Get Messy:
I went a different direction with the idea that she presented and came up with the following page...
And worked on watercolor elements from Kristi Nazarro's lesson from Tuesday for an idea I found to implement Traci's pocket element missing from the photo above:
FRIDAY - Work
Was preceded by the addition of a sew details to the ICAD cards shown below, Ranunculus and Beach:
After dinner, I enjoyed hanging out with my Get Messy art friends during my Weekly Evening Art Zoom. I worked on a few random things, but don't have photos to share.
SATURDAY - It's LINK PARTY day for the Rainbow Scrap Challenge! I hope you will visit Angela @ So Scrappy to see what the RSC Quilters have been up to this week. I was actually EARLY to the party to join the link-up.
Were you wondering about my scrappy sewing last week???
I only shared snippets, but here are the first two items completed for a swap. Mug Rugs made with my Bag Of Joy (BOJ) scraps from Francine:
Thanks, Francine!
The other items will be shared next Friday for the June 2024 TABLE SCRAPS Challenge. Have you started your WATERMELON and/or BLUE project yet??? The Link Party goes LIVE on Friday, June 28th at 12:01 AM and will remain open until Wednesday, July 3rd at 11:59 PM. There's still PLENTY of time to start and maybe even finish an entry, if you would like to participate.
Until next time...
Get SCRAPPY!!
