Paint Party Friday - Turtle Pattern


Welcome to Paint Party Friday! I recently posted this piece on Instagram as part of @alexandrasillos instagram challenge and wanted to share it here with you. The turtle piece is done on cardstock (4 1/4" x 5 1/2") in permanent markers outlined with a PITT pen. It is a month long Instagram challenge with the theme 'patterned things'.

It is an eastern box turtle with a pretty brown and yellow patterned shell on its back.

Hi, Christine. Sorry I haven't been in touch for a while, but I was extremely busy over the festive season. My mother took a bad fall, and we've all been doing our best to keep her comfortable. This is lovely work. Look forward to catching up, here and on Instagram. Best Wishes for 2020.
