Me and My Hidden Gems

My hair is longer I couldn't get it in the selfie I am 53 years old started going white haired when I was 19 I colored it for a long while and when I was 49 said I can't deal with this anymore let it go and let it grow – is now down to my butt and I can't wait for it all go Silver completely

" A colorist's despair." By me, #dep16 I try everything to make this a very pleasurable experience for me and I hit certain points whet#r I feel the need to #grow -it's not that I don't enjoy what I do it's just that I #FeelTheNeedToExperiment - The problem is I'm getting into territories of using art supplies that out way above my financial reach and or knowledge so I'm really trying to learn on the I have never taken an art class I'm just experimenting and I've watched a few YouTube videos and I just been doing it my way to see what happens – that's what I think a "Lightbu lightbulb moment. I want to do it and then I run into mental obstacles. Like not being able to find a matching color when you switch medium even if The pencils are a different line from the same company but I don't have as many in my #derwentwatercolorpencils #150prismacoloredpencils - I can't find a match with my - i'm not great at shading, blending or layering – I think I'm just #okay. In this particular art project I did NOT try a small set of #derwentinktense which returned #derwentwatercolour 25 of them I think probably that came in a large set of art supplies because I've never seen them on the market – and there an aqua color with the blue stripe and still I can't find the color I need so you're all going to have to excuse me as I keep experimenting on this I've tried using #gamsol and number four and six #SmallPaintbrushes which I didn't own it had to buy to try this – fortunately that sedative #derwentwatercolors was my first purchase that I bought from a lady that I met online for $10 wrapped up in a elastic band and cost me $10. I bought the #derwentreservoir Pack of three for my watercolor pencils and I bought myself my first set of pencils which with the #prismacolorwatercolors - wishing 4 a bigger set than but I still don't think they make more than 36#setof24colors - I need more colors ... anyhow I will model on and be due and just make this a good interesting #ArtExperiment. I've been trying so many different media and colored pencils and different techniques with #Vaseline, #solvent, #fabercastellpolychromos Oil pencils not inc here. #rant #fin (at Home in Our Meadow - North Andover, Ma)

Taking the #Boring out of my #AdultColoringBook. #testingdifferentproducts #MixedMedia #JohannaBasford #enchantedForest #fabercastellpolychromos #prismacolorpremier #derwentinktense #experimentingwithart what rules? I don't know no rules – let's keep it real folks this is fun! #findingfunagain (at North Andover, Massachusetts)

#sip Honestly, I never do any #JohannaBasford #AdultColoringPages or #AdultColoringBooks ... it's a personal choice, I find her stuff can get sometimes tedious to me but I thought this might be a good time to practice some layering techniques which I've been seeing a lot of and not sure if it's really my style so I may do something #radical and #TryToTakeItToTheNextLevel - I just got some #art mail with some #gamsol and some #Paintbrushes Plus I got a deal on a 24 set of #derwentinktense - I have #aquabrushpens and I am willing to do something radical today with my #adultcolouring #deffernt media #changingartstyle instead of getting bored #frustrated - I may just like do something and make this a test page for my new art supplies because I never use this #AdultColoringBook anyway and this could be just plain old #Magical! Let's try with this – let me go to the mailbox and get my art supplies and do something fun with my #derwentwatercolour pencils also I haven't used them in a while this may be a good day after all… #prismacolorpremier #fabercastellpolychromos #©dep.images16 #nofilter (at Home in Our Meadow - North Andover, Ma)
