30 Days of Drawing #11

This is really more of a test of the Sakura Gelly Roll pens that I wrote about yesterday.  I wanted to see how the colors with gold and silver worked on black paper.  As you can see, they didn't.

On black paper the colors are overwhelmed by the underlying gold or silver, but that's okay because they work very well on white. Like all of the Gelly Roll glittery pens, you really cannot appreciate these in a picture, they are much more sumptuous in person.

Yesterday, Sandra, over at Life Imitates Doodles, shared a link to a site which explained how to make Japanese Paper Flowers so I thought that I would give it a try.

Not sure what I'll do with it yet, but there it is.

30 Days of Drawing #1

YAY!!  Blogger seems to be working again, though now BlogPress on my iPad is not.  Ah, technology.

I do wish that these Gelly Roll StarDust pens scanned better, they are very, very glittery. (hmm, is glittery a word?).

Anyway Traci Bunkers is doing 30 Days of Drawing over on her blog, so I thought that I would join in, especially since Art Every Day Month was a total failure.

If you want really glittery pens get the Sakura Gelly Roll Stardust pens. They are absolutely eyepopping
