mo' and mo' watercolours

made them into gift bags and cards for kenny's teachers. tis the end of the year and the class celebrates the appreciation of the teachers.
and finally bought into these 140 lb. Strathmore Watercolor Blank Greeting Card with matching envelope set. Pricey! It's cheaper to buy the parent sheet size of whatever watercolour paper and weight and cut them out yourselves. But if you have lack of time and just want to get straight into painting, which is me...this is the next best thing.
Also, I just bought this Japanese Waterbrush by Niji...and they are fabu! I mean, you can still watercolour using pigments from whatever source you have (cakes or tubes) and the water comes out from the brush. You don't need to carry a dish of water.
It's quick and convenient. I love it!!! Hairs on the brush is synthetic...so you can get control on the tips for those fine details.

"kitty Katty" with baby in pocket

finally finished this. I guess the trip at the maker's faire did it for me.
this kitty katty has a little guy in his front pocket. I originally designed it without a pocket, just a belly...but changed it.
I think I'll need to modify the legs/feet area as well.
Made from old t-shirts and recycled felt material.
I might make another one...t-shirts as easy to come by...especially in silicon valley...but then I have this urge to re-paint our guest bathroom as well.

don't know why. but this tiny plastic monkey toy...

that kenny got from one of those quarter vending machines...strikes a nerve with me.
