Who else likes making these colour swatches with their (new) art materials as a reference?

I just spent a blissful hour doing these 2 sheets for my Neo Colour IIs.

On a rainy Sunday afternoon… 🎼🥰

Part 2 of my Paddock Art Book making video is now up on my YouTube channel: Michelle Walker Art

If you enjoy maker’s process videos, I think you will like this latest.

I step through how I take the book I made from a single sheet of watercolour paper and complete the page spreads with painting, collage, stencilling, stitching and drawing.

Lots of lovely textures and marks.

Feeling grateful to all the wonderful people who fell in love with my Spring Collection of enamel jewellery… and the uplifting comments and feedback when the parcel arrives and they hold them in their hands.

Like Miss P. who bought several pairs for her daughters for Xmas, and sent me a message she that she was delighted, and considering ‘greedily keeping them all’ for herself!! 🤣🤩🥰

New artist’s book from my #mark180 project in the making… here’s some snippets…

I’m working on Stonehenge watercolour paper (250 gsm) with acrylic ink, heavy body paint, pencils and hand painted collage papers. Just added some stitching after watching #sketchbooksanctuary videos by @laurahornart - thank you for your inspiration, Laura 💕🔆☺️

I have part 1 of the making video - starts with plein air painting in the paddock under the blood woods… - it’s available on YouTube (or you can see a highlight vid on my reels). And today, I’m editing the Part 2 video.

So if you love the making of artist’s books, you’ll find several videos over on YouTube. Search for me @michellewalkerart 🤩!!

Morning sun was warm on the deck while I was working in my sketchbooks.

Loving this limited palette of antelope brown, marine blue and titanium white. It makes a range of warm greens - olives and khakis.

Today is day no. 25 of the #mark180 project, marking the last 6 months of life on our farm #serenityhills.

Red and turquoise - one of my favourite colour combinations for my enamel jewellery… and by so many comments, I’m not alone.

These semicircular earrings have 3 shades of turquoise and 2 shades of red on a black background.

This is one of my ‘Coral Garden’ series… this colour combination reminds me of snorkelling and seeing colourful corals under the surface of beautiful, coastal waters.

You’ll find this pair and other lovely shapes in this colour range on the Serenity Studios Art Etsy store.

Midday walks and a quick sit on the rocks to admire grandma greygum. Love this tree, she’s a grand ol’ dame of the paddock, always birds flying in and out of her branches. I just love the bark texture of grey gums… patches of tones and shades of warm and cool.

Lulu was just thinking about when we were going to get back to the house so she could have her lunchtime snack!! Paddock dog on a lead!

Will play with the palette of the grey gum branches against the clear sky for my next sketchbook page, I think but first drinks and snacks!

Morning ritual post dog walk, with my coffee… painting a sketchbook page on the verandah… view over the trees to the banana packing shed in the far paddock… peace and quiet in the gold of the morning light. Love, love.
