Ooo @jeanneleigh - I love your nebulas!!
@geekgirl - great colors in that page. I can see moody. 
@megwell - such a cool idea! I really like the effect you got with the brown in the background.
@AIMR - lovely and subtle! Your moon came out great.
My moon on the other handâŚwas not so great. It morphed into a planet when I tried to fix it.
Ruby did a page too!
Full disclosure: I edited this to make the white look whiter. It looked so yellow in my photo.
Edit: Still looks pretty yellow. 
I think adding more layers as it dries helped me form clouds. Although my clouds started taking on funky shapes as I went.
This was fun! Sorry I had to scoot out so fast. We had some unexpected company and I felt a little bad not visiting.
I love it!!
@jeanneleigh your nebulas are great and love those cute little pumpkins!
@megwell I never thought to alter a coloring page. Looks great!
@AIMR your night sky looks good.
@Abbeeroad the planet is perfect! and Ruby did a great job!
@curiousfae yours looks fantastic! I tried another page yesterday and it still didnât come out great. you look like you really got the technique down.
More pinecone practice. This one with watercolors. The right side is kinda wonky but pinecones often have a flat / messed up side
The one with markers was easier to do
I love itâŚit looks more spontaneousâŚdid you have to wait between colors/shades?
I love it.
Not too long, I didnât do wet on wet so there wasnât too much water.
I also didnât sketch the pinecone tips ahead of time and just free handed it. Maybe next time Iâll try sketching it in first
I like the free handedâŚit looks more ârelaxedâ? I have always wanted to go on those walking paint tours where you just get the gist of the object and put in the details laterâŚit looks very freeingâŚ
Looks so good! Your shading is perfect. You can really see the depth of the seeds
I joined an Ugly Art Club play date today - to make and trade ATCs.
Iâm at my momâs house but fortunately she has the basic, go-to mixed media stuff.
First we made the backgrounds with resist, paint, splatters, Stabilo or other water soluble pencils and dripped rubbing alcohol.
Then how to add more marks and stitching or collage or ephemera. Since I knew I was taking the class. I copied images that my preschoolers made for a card they gave me. I painted them with the same colors I used for the master board.
Iâm supposed to make 9 and send 8. But I cut my master board poorly. I have a second master board in blue, green and gold so Iâll make some more.
This is great!
And I agree, many of them have a flat side, so this is realistic.
How fun to use the images from preschoolers!
Yes, meant to say that I love the pine cone, @geekgirl. Are they perfect in nature? I donât think so.
That doesnât look like Ugly Art to me.
Those are the sweetest little figures. I adore this idea. How fun!
@geekgirl your pinecones look great! Is the last one with the new watercolor set?
@Smmarrt - I love those! The stick figures have so much character - my favorite is the leaping one on the âwake up & be happyâ card. It looks so confident!
I love these! There is something about âchild-likeâ art that is so happy and freeing!
