| Miss J's elephant first session . . .lines |
Goal number nine on my October
list was to document the art that my two older granddaughters created. For a number of years, I've participated in a free online course called Sketchbook Revival that spans a few works with two classes released each day. Classes can use acrylic paints, color pencils, crayons, watercolors, pens, inks, pencils as materials. Participants may draw, paint, collage any combination of all! Each video presentation is between 30 and 60 minutes.

| Miss K's turtle first session |
Miss K and Miss J came for an overnight the weekend before my surgery. The online course was in full swing so we watched and participated in three lessons. They brought their art kits which contain watercolor paper and watercolor paint.

| My horse first session--pencil, color pencils |
Carla Sonheim led the first session of drawing some lines on the paper with a pencil and then turning the lines into something. I like her approach. We all had different animals at the end! We were all surprised that we were able to draw "something" recognizable. Most important, we had fun!

| The set-up |
The second presentation was about using different art supplies to be inspired which
Janine Vangool led. We all liked how Janine gave us a variety of examples of how to incorporate various supplies into her work. We stuck with what we had before us.

| We painted colors of emotion for the second presentation |
In the third presentation, we watercolored some flowers with Tamara LaPorte. Tamara is one of my favorite presenters. I always learn so much from her. Again, our work was similar, it was also different from each other. Miss J is so fast with her movements. Miss K takes more time. She said she liked darker/bolder colors. I was trying to practice the blending. Again, we had fun.

| Watercolor poppies |
The girls are coming over for an overnight this weekend so we will be making more art. I'm not sure how much I'll physically be able to participate as I am still in the early stages of healing!

What a fun activity to do together!
Oh, what fun! I like your photo with the girls and all of your flower paintings. It looks like Miss K is almost as tall as you are, Terry!
You are one very cool grammy :-). Glad you all had fun.
Your watercolor projects are beautiful!
