Watercolor While I Watch

I painted this while I watched Karen McKoy’s live stream on You Tube, today. It could use some touch ups, but I’m waiting for it to dry.

It’s a template from Artsy Dee. I printed it on 8.5 x 11” watercolor paper using the “draft” setting so there wouldn’t be an excess of black ink. I used an inkjet printer.

The paint is Meedan watercolor, and I used water brushes from Mr.Pen.

Karen McKoy inspired me to try watercolors, again. It had been years.

I found him on Substack. His name is Paul Wang. I think he’s in Vietnam, but his posts are from all over the world.

Paul Wang calls himself a traveling urban sketcher. He posted this water color/ plastic wrap technique 3 days ago.

I also found this creative workout from June 3 to be very interesting. It’s called, “No More Monday Moos.” I have no idea what that means, but I’m looking forward to more of this man’s art instruction.

Today, I accompanied my husband to Moh’s surgery. An old motorcycle burn on his lower leg left a scar that turned into a squamous cell sarcoma. It presented as a white scaly patch the size and shape of a silver dollar. The surgeon got it all first cut. Still, that and a trip to the pharmacy took most of the day.

I did get home in time to catch Karen McKoy’s live stream. Karen is an artist who is also a grief counselor. Her art channel is called, Slapping Paint on Paper

I found her through friends in the chat of PMartist Studio. Her words of wisdom have been invaluable to me, and I am grateful.
