That's what I was thinking about just this past week. How life just seems to sneak up on us. But I'm ok with it. Gray hair and all. Of course, I color mine, and the gray that does show, I call free highlights. LOL
I saw a quote once that said something along the lines of:
'Be yourself,
there is no one better
QUALIFIED!!!'.
Now, as far as the second sketch, I think we can all see what is going on the second sketch. But I'm having a little trouble figuring out who is actually doing the sneaking. Is Bella trying to sneak up on Bandit, or is Bandit trying to sneak up on Bella? And the little mouse? Maybe he's the one doing the sneaking! Maybe they don't even know he is there. Hmmmm. There's a story there for sure.
**Thank you to Debbie Brackett for the sneak attack idea for this sketch. Clever girl!**
And here is Part II of the video tutorial. Continuing with coloring A Penny for Your thoughts, I included the hair, shorts, bow, shirt and shoes. I hope you enjoy it, and keep those ideas coming. I'm working on the final Part III, which will include Bella. :) Scroll down past the tutorial if you'd like to gather your materials before starting. And as before, I'd love to hear some feedback. Good or bad.
Until tomorrow. . . .HAPPY SNEAKING!!!

Cheryl, I love your tutorials. You're a natural at this. Can't wait for the next one. Have to say, if you think time is passing fast at your age, just get another 15 years or so under your belt. You'll think you're in a wormhole.
ReplyDeleteBoth images are looking great.
Wow! thank you for the tutorial! But better yet, thank you for the list of things to gather ahead of time! Since I have to dig to find my supplies (note to self; clean up the studio!) it helps!!Love the sneaky little mouse by the way!!
