As we journey into September, 2023, it has been especially fun doing a painting a day, 7 paintings in 7 days, painting along with this special lady Michelle the Painter, of Berkshire Paint and Sip.
Below you can see paintings done following along with Michelle, and how her Fall spirit is in full swing, with paintings like 'Ghost in the Rain' and 'Haunted House', plus many more that you will find on her Youtube channel.
Michelle does a wonderful job guiding you through her lovely paintings, as you create something unexpected and fabulous. Her reassurance and smooth flow, keep you going and assured it is for fun, and to not take it too seriously. In the end, I am always pleased with how it has all come together, following Michelle's simple steps.
One of the most challenging for me, yet also my favorite, was the 'Beach Crab'. My little lopsided crab brings me much joy.
Paintings together;
'Ghost in the Rain'
'Daisy Guitar'
'Billards'
'Haunted House'
'Pumpkin Truck'
Thank you for stopping by.
May you find joy and happiness.
Best wishes, happy Fall & happy Autumn PAINTING!

Cami & Crabby on the beach again ~
Lately, I've been quite obsessed with drawing this image of Cami & Crabby, the camel and crab seen in drawing above on the beach. If you do not see me working on one of these drawings these days, I am probably planning one out in my head π
This one took about 30 hours of actual drawing with pencil. Much more time doodling and sketching out camels for fun and practice went in to it as well. It has been a project very near and dear to me.
Go to this past Camila & Crabby post to hear more about these two and their beginnings.
I don't know about you, but I'm still partial to the first one, on the right.
This may be the last art post on my main Doily Designs page, but you can always visit my online Art Journal here on Doily Designs, where future art and drawing posts will live. Subscribe to Doily Designs to keep up with the latest.

Best wishes and happy drawing!
