Coffee -- Is There Nothing It Can't Do?








Did you know that you
can PAINT with coffee?


I just took a fun class where we
drew and painted these cartoon critters
using light, medium, and dark
concentrations of instant coffee
(plus Sharpie markers for the outline
and for any non-sepia colours!)

The technique is essentially the same as
painting with watercolours!



Bonus: your painting smells good
while you're doing it!

Royal Roundup

Well, it's Victoria Day in Canada once again,
the date on which She Who Seeks blog
traditionally pokes fun at the Royal Family.

But, oh my, what a momentous year they've had!

First of all, farewell to Queen Elizabeth
after so many years of faithful service --




And welcome to Kay Cee Three,
who has served one of the 
world's longest apprenticeships
for any job --





And then, there was 
all the excitement
of the Coronation!




bewbin:

Truly such a beautiful day for their majesties the new king and queen may there rule be long and prospero- BLIMEY! ITS PRINCESS DIANA AND SHES GOT A STEEL CHAIR


They'll be hard pressed
to top this next year,
won't they?

Friday Face OFF

Every Friday, Nicole Campanella of
hosts Friday Face OFF, a link party
of art featuring faces!

This week I'm finally participating by sharing
wildlife faces I drew in a recent graphite course.  

My favourite is the giraffe --
what a goofy but unique face
giraffes have!

All pieces were done freehand
using four graphite pencils
(HB, 2B, 4B, and 6B)

Pelican


Elephant


Giraffe


Blue Jay
