Tea Cups and Documentation- T Tuesday



A tea cup for my Fake Journal 2014...
see the post on my blog




Continuing with the
Week 15 was a challenge to
create a page using a monochromatic
color scheme:  shades and tints of
all one color.  This is an attempt
at a self-portrait (wrinkles removed!)
using watercolors.  The dark red
was tinted with a bit of purple for
the darkest shade.
I guess I am so 'serious' because it's
difficult to keep smiling while I'm
focusing on the painting!




Another image from my Fake Journal 2014.
Watercolor and Pitt pen.  Design from a
tea cup. I really like the tan/gray color
combined with the soft blue...

Linking up with Elizabeth and Bluebeard
Have a nice hot cup of something
and join her for Assemblage Fun!

  1. Actually, the assemblage post was not supposed to go live until this afternoon. I made the mistake of leaving it the time I completed it instead of scheduling it. That's a problem I have when I'm so far behind. I have a tendency to forget the attention to detail.

    I love the cup you drew, so now I'm off to see your fake journal. Seems to put doubts to my theory of your theme.

    Thanks for sharing all your lovely art today.

  8. What a pretty tea cup! And your self portrait is lovely!
    To answer you question from last week...yes I'm that behind...the green in my smoothie was from several handfuls of spinach. You seriously can't even taste it...just the banana, yogurt and peanut butter. So yummy and packed with nutrients.

  9. Hello and Happy T Day!! WOW, your drawings are WONDERFUL and AWESOME!! I love the self portrait, such a good job you did. Lovely colors for the tea cup too, will have to try those in my art.
    Thanks so much for your visit today and in my past post. Always good to see you there.

    Spring is still coming slowly, seems it's not sure to stay or go away again. CRAZY!!

  11. Great "selfie" and tea cup, I'm so impressed by how well you are keeping up on the DLP prompts! I'm not doing that well, I think I'm a couple weeks behind.

  14. Oh, you're doing one of the fake journals! Cool! Great job on all of these. I think monochrome is hard and that looks wonderful.
    Happy belated T-Day! :)
