Teaching myself Watercolor Painting

 

Not the best but I am having fun. I am watching lots of YouTube videos and just diving in.
I wanted to see if my calligraphy pens would work on watercolor paper and I am pleased to report, YES!!

So I will be doing many more and add in some calligraphy, so much fun!!

My lesson, don't be afraid and don't worry about being perfect, just keep practicing and learning!! There's a lot of wonderful artists out there who are more than willing to share their knowledge with us. 

I am very thankful

Jellyfish using paint pens

 

I painted a jellyfish on a past acrylic paint flip cup pour. I love how it turned out. Once I had the jelly all painted I used a paintbrush and watered down white paint to fill it in. I love it!! Now to figure out how to make my own floating frame as I cannot find them for this size of canvas.

check out the youtube video below!!

ENJOY!!

Pray for Protection and Guidance

 The week of prayer for unity is over, but how about we continue throughout the year? The Christian Faith and Faithful are under attack and it is time that we unite in Christ to stand up for our beliefs and for the protection of all people. 

And by that I mean from conception to natural death.

The way God planned it.

Our culture has become a culture of death and death wishes. Abortion and Assisted Suicide are the scourge of our culture.

Let us pray together for the end of this and welcome life, support those who are dealing with terminal illness, those in chronic pain and all who suffer. 💜🙏💜 Martha

A Week of Prayer for Christian Unity

 GROWING INTO CHRIST

The gifts He gave us were for building up the body of Christ, until all of us come to the unity of faith and of the knowledge of the Son of God, to maturity, to the measure of the full stature of Christ. 

(Ephesians 4:13)

O Christ, True Light of the world, make my soul worthy to see the light of Your glory with joy on the day of my calling, and to rest with the hope of good things in the house of the righteous, until the day of Your great coming. Have mercy upon Your creation, and on me, a great sinner. Glory to the Father and to the Son and to the Holy Spirit. Now and always and unto the ages of ages. Amen

"the WORD among us, pg 14"

Let's continue our prayers for each other, now and forever, Amen!!!
