I recently created this doodle in my sketchbook and showed it to a friend who told me it looked like pasta. 🙂
It was really great practice for me in slowing down and learning control of my watercolor brushes when I painted it. I used a size 2 and 6 Black Gold by Dynasty that I purchased at Dick Blick.
Here are before and after photos:
I don’t think I would have painted it in watercolor if it wasn’t #WorldWatercolorMonth
Sometimes challenges are good for stretching my creative muscles! 😉
And speaking of muscles and pasta, I’m off to the lake for a vacation to use my water noodle so I have decided to take a short blogging break. I will still post my weird bird next Wednesday so I hope you will check in for a smile. 🙂
I plan to continue creating a watercolor each day and will be posting on Instagram as art_jill_kuhn so I hope you come check it out!
And if you want one more idea to use your noodle, check out this Noodle Fish I created last July!
Wishing you a HAPPY day! 🙂
Its so intricate Jill. Love all the patterns. You have a very big patience shoe with you. 😀
