I bought a new pan set of watercolors the other day and decided to try them out for Cactus Monday. Here's another 10 minute ATC to be given away as soon as I get enough made. I originally said all members would get one, but I think I'll only give them away to members who have commented on my posts here. You're the only ones I really know!! Happy Cactus Monday!
I truly like the composition. And the uplifting colors. Lots of movement.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful colors in here. Love the composition too. Perfect for CM.
ReplyDeleteHCM!
This is filled with the colors and the mystery of the desert...So soft at first look...yet fully armored...Niiiice! :) HCM!
ReplyDeleteto repeat, these colors are lovely, soft and soothing. the little pink parts at the top look like toes.
ReplyDeleteWhat a lovely watercolor and idea.
ReplyDeleteYour CD went into today's mail so keep an eye out for it....and do hope you enjoy using it.
I saw that a watercolor class is being offered in a few months at our local community college. Might I give that a try next? Maybe, perhaps...we'll see.
Your new watercolors gave you some good inspiration. This is wonderful. Happy Cactus Monday.
ReplyDeleteI love this one!!!! You have a great eye for a great design!
ReplyDeleteHCM!
watercolours always amaze me, they are so definite yet so wishy washy. nice one cactuteer.
ReplyDeleteCactus Monday, that's a new one to me, very pretty soft colors:)
ReplyDeleteI'd join cactus monday to get one of your watercolors!
ReplyDeleteNaww......
Even this is a simple piece but the effect and message from it just so touching!
ReplyDeleteIndeed a heartfelt piece.
You have captured the beauty of cactus with watercolour so well.
Making me feel so uplifting, easy and comfortable.
For this reason, I always love your beautiful artworks.
They are too beautiful to resist!
Ha...Ha...Your blog is just like a parmanent time travel gallery. I am glad I can come in visit anytime when I am free, 24 hours a day!!!!!!
I AM going to break out the watercolors and get working -- I always am afraid of watercolors but you inspired me, as you always do!
ReplyDeleteGreat watercolor!
ReplyDeleteOooh, I really like the colors in this one!
ReplyDeleteOh! I love this one so tender and soft. To think there's a soft Cacti, well you have done it with the dappled light... Lovelylylylylylyly!!!!!
ReplyDeleteThis ATC is so soft, and the colors so smooth! I love it. It looks really fresh, and just plain great!
ReplyDeleteSorry so late with my Happy Cactus Monday comment...I got to doing other things this eveing and now here it is already into Tuesday morning already! I am still not sleepy...now what??? :)
It is, BTW, 1:30am here on the east coast!
ReplyDeleteI keep taking double-takes on the cacti. The only thing growing up here are the kintergarteners.
ReplyDeleteThe composition is perfect, and the needles don't look painful at all!
heeeeeeeeee♥
This is so lovely. It's like you painted your essence into this cactus. I am a fan of Teri C, we met on flickr a while back and then we continued watching each other's blogs. Your blog is lovely, and I love your blog header.

I'm thinking this is pretty much my favorite of your cactus monday pieces. Love the composition, the lovely, soft, color washes and the delicate line. Beauteous!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful cactus, very soft.
ReplyDeleteI love this it's so beautifully done. I find watercolour painting very difficult - you've captured the essence of it - soft and full of amazing colours with great composition.
ReplyDeletewonderful watercolour, I just found out about ATC's (yes I've been living in a cave) now I see them everywhere.
