2272. I’m learning Greek with Duolingo and I got to a section with words I’d never heard before. So with a view to employing @EstéMacLeod’s #creativeleap method I started this floral with a whole lot of words I don’t remember and now can’t decipher. 🙄 #watercolour #ink #imaginaryflowers #qorwatercolors #sailorfude #fountainpen #platinumink #winsorandnewtonsketchbook #sketchbook #ArtForExpressionAndABetterLife #creativelife #artlife #artforexpression #dailypractice #dailyartpractice #makearteveryday #makeartforfun #makeartforcomfort #hepburnshireartist #australianartist #womenwhomakeart #womenwhopaint #womenwhodraw #femaleartist #artistsofig #artistsofinstagram

2265. On Blampied-Mollongghip Rd. The #lamb in the foreground was so sweet I stopped the car to take this photo. An hour or so later we were driving back and it were still there - but all the other sheep had moved on. We discovered the baby was seriously lame. Possibly a spinal injury and no ability to stand. We understand now it has been euthanised. 😒 #watercolour #ink #ruralvictoria #qorwatercolors #sailolorfude #fountainpen #platinumink #winsorandnewtonsketchbook #sketchbook #ArtForExpressionAndABetterLife #creativelife #artlife #artforexpression #dailypractice #dailyartpractice #makearteveryday #makeartforfun #makeartforcomfort #hepburnshireartist #australianartist #womenwhomakeart #womenwhopaint #womenwhodraw #femaleartist #artistsofig #artistsofinstagram

2262. A farm just a bit further down Dean-Barkstead Rd.

2257. Last night I sketched Harris from a classic, nay, iconic logtrait lovingly taken by his mama @theworldaccordingtoharris. It is still a work in progress as I need to add colour but that will come later in the day. This morning as the logging tucks continue to rumble on the neighbouring land, a plantation being harvested, I’ll pop air pods in and try to escape the din upsetting my woodland haven. #sailorfude #fountainpen #platinumink #winsorandnewtonsketchbook #sketchbook #wip #workinprogress #ArtForExpressionAndABetterLife #creativelife #artlife #artforexpression #dailypractice #dailyartpractice #makearteveryday #makeartforfun #makeartforcomfort #hepburnshireartist #australianartist #womenwhomakeart #womenwhopaint #womenwhodraw #femaleartist #artistsofig #artistsofinstagram

2254 Wednesdays are the days when Simon comes to help us on the property so not much art gets made. Our day was mainly spent constructing a kit hen house & run I purchased many months ago which has been sitting on a pallet in our carport. I thank God that the boy and I didn’t attempt to assemble this nightmare ourselves. I’m sure we would have been swearing and stomping with #IKEArage at the unintuitive design and terrible instructions with which it was accompanied. There were even pre assembled roof trusses that were too short. It has taken three whole days to get it to this point and that has included circumventing a ridiculous design problem involving the joining of the run to the main house structure by repurposing some old wooden fencing we had lying about. I cannot begin to tell you how much I do not recommend the company who manufactured this nightmare product. And it wasn’t cheap either. Nevertheless, in the end, we will have a chicken enclosure of great safety and security (and hopefully functionality) and our family will be extended by new life and free range eggs. 👏 #thegreatergood #farmlife #sailorfude #fountainpen #platinumink #winsorandnewtonsketchbook #sketchbook #qorwatercolors #ArtForExpressionAndABetterLife #creativelife #artlife #artforexpression #dailypractice #dailyartpractice #makearteveryday #makeartforfun #makeartforcomfort #hepburnshireartist #australianartist #womenwhomakeart #womenwhopaint #womenwhodraw #femaleartist #artistsofig #artistsofinstagram #inkandwatercolour

2252. Preparing for Art for Expression and a Better Life in Trentham I am looking at exercises that allow us to experiment and familiarise ourselves with our materials but also create aesthetically pleasing outcomes. #sailorfude #fountainpen #platinumink #winsorandnewtonsketchbook #sketchbook #qorwatercolors #ArtForExpressionAndABetterLife #creativelife #artlife #artforexpression #dailypractice #dailyartpractice #makearteveryday #makeartforfun #makeartforcomfort #hepburnshireartist #australianartist #womenwhomakeart #womenwhopaint #womenwhodraw #femaleartist #artistsofig #artistsofinstagram #inkandwatercolour

2236. Yesterday was session one of Art for Expression and a Better Life in picturesque Trentham. With a mixed ability group we started out looking at ideas of traditional primary colours versus the more contemporary model and then with brushes in hand we set off to find fun ways to explore the interaction between our paints and water, our brushes and the surfaces we have chosen - everyone has different so we all have our own road to traverse. It was a bolt out of the gates and I’m looking forward to more with this lovely group. Daylesford needs a few more enrolments before we can fly so if you’re in the area and up for it, contact Daylesford Neighbourhood Centre and sign on. My flowers today started with a messy colour wheel and and was painted with a #limitedpalette of #ultramarineblue, #pyrrolered and #hansayellowlight. A touch of #cobalt teal was brought in at the end to lift things and I went to a few other blues to vary the background blues. #qorwatercolors #sailorfude #fountainpen #platinumink #winsorandnewtonvisualjournal #sketchbook #ArtForExpressionAndABetterLife #creativelife #artlife #artforexpression #dailypractice #dailyartpractice #makearteveryday #makeartforfun #makeartforcomfort #hepburnshireartist #australianartist #womenwhomakeart #womenwhopaint #womenwhodraw #femaleartist #artistsofig #artistsofinstagram

2218. I was watching the sentencing of Lori Vallow and needing to counteract some of the unspeakable horror with a loose splatting of colour. #strathmore500mixedmedia #sketchbook #qorwatercolors #ArtForExpressionAndABetterLife #creativelife #artlife #artforexpression #dailypractice #dailyartpractice #makearteveryday #makeartforfun #makeartforcomfort #hepburnshireartist #australianartist #womenwhomakeart #womenwhopaint #womenwhodraw #femaleartist #artistsofig #artistsofinstagram

2212. Practicing skin tones because everything keeps going muddy and grey. I’m wondering if part of the problem is my indelible ink bleeding. It didn’t happen here, though. #blobfaces #strathmore500mixedmedia #sailorfude #fountainpen #platinumink #sketchbook #qorwatercolors #tulips #dogart #goldenretriever #goldensonthegoldcoast #ArtForExpressionAndABetterLife #creativelife #artlife #artforexpression #dailypractice #dailyartpractice #makearteveryday #makeartforfun #makeartforcomfort #hepburnshireartist #australianartist #womenwhomakeart #womenwhopaint #womenwhodraw #femaleartist #artistsofig #artistsofinstagram
2211. Boston on his third birthday. @caitlinjadekerr @matt_kerr . I’m not quite sure why my indelible Inc. is smudging as you can see on Boston’s head – making it quite muddy. I’d certainly let it dry properly. So I don’t know what’s going on there. Does anyone have any clues? #strathmore500mixedmedia #sailorfude #fountainpen #platinumink #sketchbook #qorwatercolors #tulips #dogart #goldenretriever #goldensonthegoldcoast #ArtForExpressionAndABetterLife #creativelife #artlife #artforexpression #dailypractice #dailyartpractice #makearteveryday #makeartforfun #makeartforcomfort #hepburnshireartist #australianartist #womenwhomakeart #womenwhopaint #womenwhodraw #femaleartist #artistsofig #artistsofinstagram

2208. My beautiful boy took a bus to South Australia. He let me photograph him as proof of life. I didn’t as his permission to paint him. 😬 #strathmore500mixedmedia #sketchbook #qorwatercolors #artspectrumgouache #ArtForExpressionAndABetterLife #creativelife #artlife #artforexpression #dailypractice #dailyartpractice #makearteveryday #makeartforfun #makeartforcomfort #hepburnshireartist #australianartist #womenwhomakeart #womenwhopaint #womenwhodraw #femaleartist #artistsofig #artistsofinstagram

2206. A #farmer and his #hound.

2204. Two attempts at the #shoebill and they both fell off the bottom of the page. 😂 These are incredible #dinosaurbirds, by the way #strathmore500mixedmedia #sailorfude #fountainpen #platinumink #sketchbook #ArtForExpressionAndABetterLife #creativelife #artlife #artforexpression #dailypractice #dailyartpractice #makearteveryday #makeartforfun #makeartforcomfort #hepburnshireartist #australianartist #womenwhomakeart #womenwhopaint #womenwhodraw #femaleartist #artistsofig #artistsofinstagram
2203 Some nonsense from an old magazine while I “true crime”.

2202 I usually use my phone for reference photos since my boy has co-opted my computer. So yesterday while I was listening to day two of Chad Daybell‘s trial, I found inspiration in #quickinksketches of the courtroom. This page is not yet complete but it does represent almost the complete sum total of my artistic endeavors for the day meagre as they may be. I had to stop listening after a while because the evidence regarding the remains of poor JJ and Tylee was beyond what I could bear. As a true crime enthusiast, I am earnestly interested in understanding peoples’ behaviors and motivations. The true crime space provides a fertile ground for exploration of this topic, bizarre and all as many of these ghastly cases may prove to be. #strathmore500mixedmedia #sailorfude fountain pen #platinumink #sketchbook #ArtForExpressionAndABetterLife #creativelife #artlife #artforexpression #dailypractice #dailyartpractice #makearteveryday #makeartforfun #makeartforcomfort #hepburnshireartist #australianartist #womenwhomakeart #womenwhopaint #womenwhodraw #femaleartist #artistsofig #artistsofinstagram
2201 yeah nah. I rushed this. Reference came from @blueshineart and I didn’t do it justice in any way. It’s flat and lifeless. Meh. #strathmore500mixedmedia #carandachegouache #sketchbook #ArtForExpressionAndABetterLife #creativelife #artlife #artforexpression #dailypractice #dailyartpractice #makearteveryday #makeartforfun #makeartforcomfort #hepburnshireartist #australianartist #womenwhomakeart #womenwhopaint #womenwhodraw #femaleartist #artistsofig #artistsofinstagram
