Before we get to the sketches: I’ll be on TV in a few hours! WBPI is airing a Skype taping of an interview with me today, Dec 20th, at 10:00AM EST. I know, not much warning! It’s super short, and I don’t know where in the hour it will broadcast; I’m hoping to get a recording of it to post on my Bible Journaling channel soon.

Speed Sketching in Watercolor
I was playing around with a photo that I thought was challenging but beautifully seasonal…I’m not positive what I think of either of these but thought you might like to see them. I tried this painting several times, and this is closer than the first – but I may still need to paint it a few more times. Can’t let a flower kick my behind, know what I mean?

Some of the paint got well away from me but….yeah. lol.

Speed Sketching in Copic Marker
Just because the watercolor fought me, I also sketched the flowers in Copics– I’m far more comfortable with the medium, though it’s not challenging to me so I love the watercolor process much more.

That white poinsettia was harder than I thought!

I’m still goofing around with the new lights – but I seriously need to get back to work today or I won’t have anything ready to post in January, eeep!! Note to self: Next year take the *second* half of December for sleeping in, not the first half!
You are incredible. Talent given to you by God.
You are amazing. I love all of your work. Merry Christmas!
Your watercolour and your Copic sketch are awesome Sandy, I love to watch you colouring.
I have watched the interview, not live, and I thought it was great Sandy. I am not religious but find your Bible Journaling wonderful and I think you deserve this attention for your book and workbook because of the great way you make your art, how you teach and how you encourage people to enjoy colouring regardless of their skills or the medium they use.
Thank you so much for being this great person.
Just so beautiful.
These are beautiful
What an inspiration you are!!!
Why are you making cards?? You should be doing art like this all the time.
Both works are stunning.
Merry Christmas, Sandy. I wish you all the very best in the year to come.
They’re both gorgeous. I love the light and shade behind the leaves and watching it take shape. You’re a very talented lady… don’t ever stop!
Wow, I can’t begin to put into words what I felt while watching this video. Thank you for sharing with us.
What beautiful poinsettias. I love both mediums, and as always your videos are mesmerizing. I also just watched your interview! You are so inspiring in so many ways.
Always fascinating to watch a painting develop and especially these two beauties in different mediums.
Whew – that’s a lotta work, but well worth the time. Please, please don’t ever ask us to choose which we like best – it would depend on your mood at the moment – that is, IF a person could ever choose in the first place! Love ’em both – because they’re the same, only different!
