Currently June 2022
We’re already in the swing of things in July. The holiday weekend delayed my monthly processing. How was June? Hmm. It started off really busy with end-of-school-year things and then we transitioned into SUMMER BREAK with a few baseball tournaments up in the mix. This month I was inspired by summer fruits and vegetables so I painted a WATERMELON!
I started with a layer of colored pencil and then used watercolors to paint on top.
Here’s more inside my currently workbook-
Let’s get into it!
