Work In Progress

sunflowers in progress, 6 x 9 watercolor. 2015 Sheila Delgado

On a cool, rainy, GLORIOUS day. Window open. Painting.

Rain is such blessing, especially for all of those near the fires. The North fire yesterday on the Cajon pass was devastating for so many people. It is the main route from So. Cal. to Las Vegas. Prayers going out for all of those affected by it.

Can’t imagine being left on foot, in the desert, 30 miles from any sort of facilities. 20 cars were destroyed. 2 semi trucks. Feeling very blessed, and very thankful for the rain.

I painted the bookmark first, and I like it better. The arrangement has a looser feel to it. But I am happy with both of these.

I have also been doing more faces, this first one was done in oil pastels, student quality. And I have to say I do not like them much. I had a hard time with blending, I need to read up on how to do it better.

Below is pen and watercolor, in my sketch book. I can see lots of errors, but I like her.

I also did a quick poppy sketch, not terrific, but I like it.

I know I have been quiet for a while, but now you can see why. I have been busy adding to my shop on Zazzle.com. I am so excited to share these with you!

I never would have thought of postcards as an outlet for my art. I owe that inspiration to Kat Sloma and her Liberate Your Art event. There is still time to join this year, for anyone interested. It is free, and FUN!

If you want to join, I will even share my postcard layout for the back with you to make your own. Just comment with your email, and I will send you the PDF. I will delete your email before publishing the comment. Sorry, I know, slacker. I should have the PDF available as a link. Maybe I can get to that tomorrow.

Ok, off to make chicken tortilla soup, and roast some potato’s for dinner tonight and tomorrow.

Have a super day everyone. Thanks for reading this, and please feel free to share it.

Happy creating to you!
