Morning Glory Gnome Doodle Real Time Inking and Coloring

Break time!

In under 19 minutes you can see me ink and color this adorable gnome that I sketched while looking at one of my little felt Gnomes that I made last month. He just makes me smile and I hope he does that for you too!

If you want to color along here's the free coloring sheet that you can print out. :) Right Click on the picture and Save As to your computer. Then you can open and print. Make sure you know what folder it saves to on your computer.

If you grab the coloring sheet I'd love it if you would leave me a comment so I know you liked it!

Easy DIY Blooming Watercolor Speed Painting Zen Doodle

New video up --can we say I'm already dreaming of Spring? What do you think?

Should I do more Speed Paint/Draw type videos?



This is so easy but has a lot of impact. Use what ever colors your heart desires. This painting was a sort of magenta, 2 colors of blue and 3 colors of green. Then dried with a hairdryer and doodled with a black pen. I think I will be doing a few more of these.



I may even do a coloring sheet!

Remember to get out and do something creative!
