This is response to a challenge from @monikozi to follow an acrylic paint tutorial with my water colour paints.
Wish I'd not outlined a pteradactyl with the beads though!!
Moni's is here and Vikki's is here . I've got a long way to go to be as good as these two, but this was fun and I can only go upwards in my copying skills off of YouTube!!
okay, i give up on this painting bit. i suck at it compared to the two of you. 😂 🤣 😊😔 🥴 😜 i'll find another craft to do. maybe build a doll house. 😂 @monokozi
@summerfield tut tut tut Vikster, not allowed to be critical if your work,which I'll have you know is very good. I like how we've each done the tutorial our own way!!!! And I'm the only one with with a dinosaur!!!
@summerfield@30pics4jackiesdiamond
You are greeeat!!!!!!!!!! I am astonished.
Vikki, sorry, you are one of the gang and you can not leave it alive, and the first rule of the gang is no self-criticism allowed.
Really, on a more serious note, i am fascinated how all three of us got a different result. I am amazed at Jackie's ability to transfer to watercolour.
Well done, lasses!!!! We deserve a treat, each of us. Alcoholic or chocoholic, as you wish! @30pics4jackiesdiamond i came back to the photograph to find the pterodactyl. And i can not unsee it :)
Gang, my motto in photography and in painting is : "I suck, but at least I suck at cool stuff."
@30pics4jackiesdiamond@monikozi@summerfield -- you three project SUCH FUN through this project of yours! Makes me smile thinking about how our community produces such unexpected connections. outlining a pteradactyl included.
Never would’ve seen the pterodactyl had you not pointed it out. Mad painting skills for sure and almost have inspired me to give it a go as well! I probably will never get around to it! P S loved the little selfie too.
@summerfield@monikozi How fun to see the different interpretations from the same tutorial! Each one of them a masterpiece in their own right.
Jackie, it looks less like a pterodactyl upright. It's lovely and the beads drape nicely from the fence to the branches.
@summerfield Each of you has interpreted the image in your own style, much as you take photographs in your own style. None are bad, just different from each other.
@monikozi@30pics4jackiesdiamond
i am soooo inclined to bring this up with jane to see which one she likes best. or we can put out a challenge for anyone to interpret the image whether in photos, drawing, sketching, painting or some such.
@summerfield or maybe yes...
I have no objection to show mine to Jane. Feel free to use the photo.
As for the challenge, it's on!!! Jackie pushed my watercolor button and i am thinking of giving it a try. :)
I don't know what you had in mind with the challenge, but jut go for it. The worst that can happen is that only the three graces here tried it. ;)
So I've progressed from copying you photographically to now painting! Please don't think I'm a creepy stalker ( or axe murderer should we meet!)
