Scribble Picnic


Mushy
My first try with water colors and I used black ink for definition ... have you ever had a shoe sucked off your foot by mud?  I have ... it was fun at the time, but my Mother wasn't happy when I got home, Ha!

Andrea

P. S.  Happy Valentines Day everyone :)

Yuck! And yes I in fact lost one shoe tromping over a lake bed. Luckily I survived. One does strange things at 18. Lovely take on the theme.

Oh, it was wet sand for me on a short trip. And luckily I had an extra pair of shoes and socks with me! Sure was mushy. Great job with the watercolors.

Water colors look great. Nice idea for the theme this week.

Ooh, what a clever interpretation of the theme, Andrea. And look like you are getting the hang of the watercolours too. (I struggle with those paints as it’s hard to get rich colour unless using the tube kind which Ive never had.)

Ah yes, muddy walks and sucked off wellies. I have so many memories of such. Funny how it goes from fun as a kid when not the one to have to clean them to a nuisance later! :)

The new theme details are up on the blog btw. Thanks!

Ohhhh what a clever take on the theme! And yes, had a shoe stuck but not in mud. I waled out onto tar on a hot summer day and my foot sunk into the tar and my shoe got stuck....and remained! lol :)

I'd prefer to be stuck in clean, fresh snow than hard to clean up mushy mud!
Great idea for the theme Andrea!
