Two more prompts from @natashanewtonart #woodlandmarch #patreonartchallenge These are for the prompts autumn in the woods and winter in the woods. I decided to do a similar image but with the colours typically associated with each season. I think autumn is my favourite but I do like both. Definitely want to try out more in this style #natashasnewts #watercolour #watercolourpainting #acrylicmarkers #romanszmal #winsorandnewton #posca #molotowmarkers #pentelpaintmarker #mixedmedia (at Botanic Gardens) https://www.instagram.com/p/Cp_KYo9LZzs/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Last one for the night! Amanita muscaria aka the fly agaric for @natashanewtonart #woodlandmarch #patreonartchallenge prompt mushrooms and toadstools. Just a couple more prompts until I catch up (and then inevitably fall behind again 😂) For some reason I decided to challenge myself to just use my neocolors (1 and 2) and my stabilo goodies. I think it turned out alright #natashasnewts #carandache #neocolor1 #neocolor2 #stabilowoody #flyagaric (at Botanic Gardens) https://www.instagram.com/p/Cpqy4JuoJvM/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

The third prompt for @natashanewtonart #woodlandmarch #patreonartchallenge was woodland bird. I have chosen a tropical bird instead 😅 I wanted to try out a technique by Yeates Makes over on Youtube. He used a soft pastel drawing and transferred it to a Gelli plate. I tried two times. The first was an absolute disaster (second pic). I tried to add too much detail and lost most of my macaw The second would have been perfect if I had only cleaned my Gelli plate 😅 instead I ended up with a ghost print as well as the new print. At this point I can't be bothered to try again 🤦‍♀️ #natashasnewts #softpastel #kohinoorpastels #gelli #gelliprinting #gelliprint #amsterdamstandard (at Botanic Gardens) https://www.instagram.com/p/CpqqS5_N1-1/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

I finally pulled my finger out and have completed day two of @natashanewtonart #woodlandmarch #patreonartchallenge which was the house through the trees. For some reason my mind went to Hansel and Gretel and the witch's house made of gingerbread and sweets. I googled for some inspiration and loved the composition of a piece by Lyuba Bogan. So I based mine on her work. I'm fairly happy with it overall though I definitely need to work on perspective 😅 #natashasnewts #mixedmedia #colouredpencils #derwentdrawingpencils #derwentlightfast #derwentcoloursoft #carandache #luminance #fabercastell #polychromos #pittartistpen #albrechtdürer #watercolormarkers #hanselandgretel (at Botanic Gardens) https://www.instagram.com/p/CpqPgsorEIF/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

@natashanewtonart is doing an art challenge on her Patreon #woodlandmarch with a new prompt every other day. March isn't the greatest month for me so I highly doubt that I will manage all the prompts. However I do plan to do as many as I feel up to doing. This is for the prompt moonlit forest #natashasnewts #patreonartchallenge #derwentcoloursoft #derwentdrawingpencils #derwentlightfast #fabercastell #pittartistpen #mixedmedia #sketch #stabilowoody (at Botanic Gardens) https://www.instagram.com/p/CpTF0HyLWLi/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
