Catching up..

NOTICE!!!!
Unfortunatly  at this point in my posting I had  problem with my images.  I loaded  photes without down sizing the image... so I ran out of free Google space and paniced.  I needed to delete my images and learn to resized my images.  So you will find a many posting with large black circles.. repesenting delted images.  SORRY.. I goofed and have decided not to reload previous images.  OH WELL.. I am in a learning process ... I have now learned to resize my photos and lots of space to post .



 Here I go again... documenting what I have been doing to Jane Davies Sketchbook class...

I have been neglecting my posts and wanted to catch up.  Here are some of pieces I have been developing in my class... Jane really gives us lots of exercises to work out.  I am so enthusiastic about the assignments and enjoy what we are encouraged to do weekly..  The exercises and the class participants post so many exciting pieces I am continually inspired.  Lucky me!!!!!!!!!!
Develped from just a single shape..   trying to make it simple

And of course..  get out the straw

There truly is a collage piece on this .. and then scratched and imprinted!
  These were just pieces that I played around with trying to keep it simple.. and then moving on..
                                                       Fun... Fun... Fun...

 

BJ, Lesson 5, #1 Collage on B&W


Here are few of my Collages on B & W.. Fun to try to overly a collage .. but such a challenge.
 Thanks Jane............  We are so blessed to have such challenges.....
 

Bj, Lesson 4 #1 and 1b

Watered down black acrylic large piece, cropped then added Royal blue liquid acrylic and then Tulip slice to make the lines

Watered down black acrylic large piece, cropped  then applied Rust liquid acrylic color
After playing and playing with watered down acrylic and then waiting for India Ink to arrive  I found I have so many large pieces of free painting  B & W pieces I was lucky to have lots of compositions to choose form..  Hopefully I have choose a few that will work.
So here is my first attempt to do something with this ...


  • S0 there ya go.......  hope I get the two assignments worked up before I go off to Gay Paris!

    BJ, sorry it's taken me so long to find your blog.

    I hope you get this note. It is at this point, moving back in time down the blog, that all your images disappear! There are just black boxes with a minus sign in them from this point backwards. I thought you should know.

    Nan..
    I hope you get this because I know no other way to contact you except via class..
    Unfortunately I am aware of this problem.. Awhile back I was notified that my blog memory was full. I found the problem to be that I had been posting too large of photos. So in order to continue the blog posting.. (this includes all blogs I am posting on including Janes classes) I had to delete photos if I wanted to gain more space or pay more to Google for more space.. at the time I didn't know what to do so I just began deleting and this is what I ended up with.
    When things slow down I hope to get back, re-size and then re-post to eliminate the black holes.
    In the meantime this is what I am stuck with. Oh well. There could be worse problems I'm sure.
