Hi, I am taking part in the Art, Heart & Healing Course run by the lovely Tam. Our 1st week consisted of a healing excercise making up a journal page. Part of that was to do a self-portrait on one side. I used to love sketching at school but that was a little while ago (well...ok....a long time ago haha). Tam suggested using acrylics & watercolour crayons to colour the face but as I didn't have the crayons I just used watercolour but am pretty pleased with the result. Though...
...its interesting that it didn't occur to me to add the lines & wrinkles or the chins hahaha!!! Perhaps this is the inner me after all!!!! Thank you for taking a look at this...its not too late to join in and its free! HEALING HUGS XXX

Hope you & J have a comfortable weekend. Wishing you both a speedy recovery. Hugs, Gez.xx
This is superb, Karen - love, love it x
I signed up for that class and got as far as 10 minutes into the first video and it crashed. I may have to reinstall Adobe, but I'm hoping she'll leave the lesson up for awhile. I can't draw, not anything, so I am sure this will be a hoot class for me.
I love your pages, both of them. They are awesome. And you draw SO well. I'm totally in awe and very intimidated, now!
Wow, Karen, this is astounding!!! What a magnificent piece of art....You are so talented...and this is so deep and inspirational!
