markers

so, I am slowly but surely building up my art supply stash and decided that I have to start thinking of a nice way to store my markers in a way that they are close by and I do not have to unpack a whole bunch of things to get to them.
I have to admit that after sorting them out I have alot less than I thought I had lol or atleast it looks that way anyhow :)
I started with my new Kaisercraft Infusions alcohol markers...a little while ago I saw someone using and old CD holder to store them...Perfect, I had just the right one stashed away filled with cds I dont even listen to anymore. Then I dug out an assortment of artline markers, sharpies, slick sticks, Pitt pens and put them into some stationery holders that I picked up at Kmart for about $3 each. 

Still have a long way to go to have a collection like everyone else, but have to start somewhere lol. Now to sort out my paints, pencils, etc.

The Rainbow Mermaid

I have joined some online art journal courses at Willowing Arts
 and Tam is currently offering an amazing tutorial called The Rainbow Mermaid, you can access the class by making a donation to Water Charity. For more information click HERE


Tam is fantastic at breaking down how to do everything and even if you feel that you can not draw, she will show you step by step how to create your very own mermaid.
So, without further ado, I have completed my take:
I have used watercolour paints and dylusion sprays to create her.
So why not have a go at painting your mermaid and help a worthy cause at the same time.
Thanks Tam, I really enjoyed this tutorial,

Thanks for stopping by
Happy creating.
