In lockdown or just before, hubby pulled down my old leanto green house and built me a small potting shed in the space, which I painted Urban Grey, I also painted the shed and most of the flower pots to match with the same wood paint and later, Hubby wanted to build a kind of car port attached to the garage and I insisted that all the wood for that was also painted in the same colour, including the new 'bi-fold' wooded doors he made for the garage... but I'm going off track now... (and so has blogger....how do I line up the next bit below, the same as above????????)
To try and get my Crafty Mojo back, I've been watching crafty videos. No! No no! (No, naughty crafty people!) Craft videos, honestly! I have quite a few papercraft favourites now but today I came across Michelle The Painter https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cLNGE9ocHYY and she shows you how to paint a lovely snowman in acrylic paints with a link to a free download of the same snowman. I haven't done any drawings or digis...and seem to have forgotten how to use my Bamboo Wacom, so on seeing this lady painting away, I decided to have a go, not with paint but on the Wacom. Digital. I opened it up with the free download Paintnet, as my poor old laptop can't download up grades any more, colours and tools were a bit limited but this is what I came up with. So...who's up for a freebie Wednesday any time very soon?
So nice to see you again! You keep yourself busy for sure! Glad you have had some time to be creative! The snowman is adorable!
