Default WCW046, April 14, 2021 Watercolor butterfly and dragonfly

Hello and happy Wednesday. Linda here as your hostess this week. Since you all have been painting amazing scenes and flowers. Thought this week we would add butterflies and dragonflies that flutter around the flowers.
You have a choice of sketching them or using a stamp. Sure hope you give sketching them a try on practice paper. You can decide to make both or just one. I don't want anyone stressing out...this is suppose to be fun!
Each week we learn something new from the videos. This week, liked how she added shading with a neutral color over the first color. You can make your images any colors that you wish.
My card
Gallery

Keyword: WCW046
Since we are not sure the cards will come to the gallery, post them here so we find them.
I will give you the link to the video in the next post.
Hope you can join us, and let's create some beautiful butterfles and dragonflies . Have Fun!!!!

Although I really love her samples I decided to branch out and do a I was going for a pale-ish green/blue moth type color and that part went OK for me. ( I like blue/green/brown) as a color combo a lot so, I am pleased with that part of this, and I really think I could easily do another dozen of these to get a really cool one. but, I need to go check on dinner so, here is one from me, thanks Linda!
