I’m hoping to learn to paint a watercolour background and then have a pencil layer on the top.2

Cindi my daughter will go nuts when I show her your doggie portrait. What a lovely gift to your brave cousin 💝1

Arpie ‘sip and paint’ sounds fun! I guess you didn’t overdo the sipping because your painting looks terrific.1
-
You are very kind, @HelenlovesSnoopy - it was TERRIFIC fun, in good company! hehe the Daiquiris were GORGEOUS - but I limited myself to 2 until after we'd finished!!
WOW - we sure have some talented artists on board now!!! YOUR art is just awesome!! I LOVE your cards! xx. Looking forward to seeing anything else you have!!
Oh WOW! WELL DONE, @Cindi.... that doggie is wonderful!!! I reckon you could get a few commissions from here!! People LOVE their dogs & cats - unconditional acceptance & companionship xx
My husband was a self taught artist .... he did some Pointilism drawings too ... all pen & all dots (not one line on them!) They took hundreds of hours to complete.
Here's a paiting he did of George Gregan & Kiwi Allblack Rokocoko, preventing a match winning try!

I did a paint and sip. Hahahahaha. My lion looked kinda like a woolly mammoth. At least you could tell what everyone elses was suppose to be. I had fun though.3

@arpie, your hubby’s very clever - I know about pointillism because of a scene in Ferris Bueller’s Day Off 😂

Oh wow Helenlovessnoopy I didn't realise you you also did art until I just saw this as I was checking out to leave for hospital !
WOW so good, I love the cards, you could sell them!!
Will talk more when home.
And Arpie your hubby is very talented.

Sadly, I lost hubby to cancer 17 months ago
His art is all over the house xx
I love this one ..... all coloured pencils ... she looks at you, no matter where you are in the room! No, it is not me! 
Check out this piece of art tho - it is AMAZING - make sure you watch to the end!

I'm really sorry to hear that about your hubby Arpie. I can see why you want to keep his art all over the house, even though it must be sad it must be kind of lovely as well. Sending you a lot of hugs.This picture looks very Irish/Celtic to me, with the green eyes and touches of auburn in her hair.
I think you should keep on painting too - even if just for fun.1 -
Thank you xx @HelenlovesSnoopy .... my hair used to be quite 'auburn' - but now is more 'white' ... we don't go 'grey' .... we go white xx.
He was sent to Rhodesia with his twin in the '40s, as a 10 year old and LOVED growing up there .... (ex UK) and his Giraffe painting/drawing (a mix of mediums) with Kilimanjaro in the background (that he never visited!) was amazing.

@arpie, that picture makes me feel so peaceful when I look at it
And your hubby was a twin! Twins are so special (I have twin girls).1 -
thank you xxx It is HUGE & is in our lounge room above the fire place ( I am looking at it now. xx) @HelenlovesSnoopy
Twins are SO special - they always had a 'telepathic' feeling of emotions & problems .... right to the end xx. His brother is a tad fragile just now
My sister has 'non identical' twins .... whilst hubby & brother were identical - but as he continued competing, he remained very 'toned' ... whereas his brother became a tad more 'rotund' ..... but they sounded the SAME - their voices were identical!! xx2
