Scribble Picnic - Double


Welcome to Michael's Scribble Picnic! This piece is on canvas (9" x 12") using my new Sharpie oil paint markers. I mistakenly started sketching on the unprimed side of the canvas and decided to just keep going. As a result the colours are more muted. However one of our themes this week is 'Double' so this 'Fall Cottage' piece has 2 identical windows to fit with this theme.

I have an upcoming  ACEO  piece I did with the Sharpie oil paint markers, where I will talk about my first experience with these markers, stay posted.

This is really attractive Christine and you were clever to think of double windows for the theme. I love the muted colors which still bring autumn to mind - just wish our trees would hurry up and change color - they are so late this year!

I must check out the Sharpie Oil Paint markers - interesting!

can't tell you how many times i've drawn on the wrong side of the paper - ...this is really cute.

Jennifer Rose said...

nice job with all the leaves on the ground :)

I really love this lil number, Christine. It's very sweet. And I see we had the same sort of idea. Actually, truth be told I hadn't thought of the double windows until seeing you as I was focusing on the jolt end before realising it worked for both. :) Thanks, as always, for playing alone.

this makes me wish for fall instead of the winter we are now experiencing. this is a lovely scene, I like the colors, they don't seem muted to me.

have a lovely day.

Just perfect for the 'double' prompt, Christine! I like the colours! I must remember to check back for your review on the markers. I'd be interested to hear if they have a strong smell.

So peaceful ... looks like a place where you could escape the hubbub of daily living. I like your muted colors ... probably better than if they were bright colors :) Lovely job, Christine ...

I love this. I think that fall makes even the smallest of buildings look so inviting. You did a wonderful job with it.

Great DOUBLE....

Jenn Jilks said...

I think I should try Sharpies!! Great one!

Christine,

Beautifully done. I never thought about a canvas used with Sharpie Markers. Why, I didn't know that Sharpie had oil paint markers. That's really cool. Maybe when I get more brave with my art ability I can try doing something like this. Very nice! I'm sorry for visiting soooo late for the 'Jolt/Double' theme.
