I started liking all of them but there's 6 pages!

Lovely thread killer b and everyone else. I'm not going to participate as I am not very painty but I'm going to get some paints to take on our hols so that Rosa can paint some cards to send to her friends, and maybe I'll join in :)

Not sure where I can get postcards from locally though and we leave midweek.

FWIW I used marker pens on mine - can't paint for toffee.

BTW cheap blank postcards (not ideal for watercolours, but good enough to practice on) are often sold in post offices or small newsagents.
 
I just got mine in the local PO/ sweet shop. They're dead cheap so you can fuck em up and not care :D
Which means you're less likely to fuck em up, or at least it does for me. :)
 
I was thinking about using oil pastels - has the travel through the post added anything to the picture?
dunno - i textured it before i sent it, and that seems to have come through pretty much as intended, looking at the photo. other people's letters may have had some pretty colours smudged upon them, but that's no bad thing.
 
me too! it's FAB. I'd love to be involved next time although I've hardly picked up a paintbrush or pencil since I left school :)
Good for you. It annoys me that there are no small children who say they can't paint or draw, but by the time they hit their teens a lot of them will have been repeatedly told that they can't.
 
have to say that the experience of showing my mum anything here at all was decidedly uncomfortable. Still, I think she deserved to.
Very brave of you, particularly as this isn't a single subject board and it's a lot swearier than some.
