#16 Stand Inktober52

Tombow, Copic, Aqua Pen Graphix, Deleter NEOPIKO-Color pens, Stoneground Watercolor paint, and Graphix Aqua Ink in Sunshine Yellow, Pyrrole Red, and Quinacridone Gold.

I am catching-up to the weekly word prompts for Inktober52. I chose a Lemonade Stand. When growing up in coastal New England, my neighbor, Marcia and I would host a lemonade stand occasionally.

Our daughters hosted a couple of lemonade stands. Only 14 states allow impromptu lemonade stands. I have only lived in states where it is permissible. It is a great way for kids to start to learn about business.

Let’s see if you can see the difference. When I tried to lift some dirt in the paint, also lifted the paint. I had to redo the sky, but it gave me an opportunity touch up the painting. This our flowering cherry tree in our front yard.

I am catching up to the weekly Inktober52 drawings, as I have been learning to paint with acrylic paint. For this prompt, I used my Irish Ancestors Surname, the Dolan Family Crest.

This was the final day Acrylic University 5 Day Kick Starter Mini Paintings. This one was from a photo taken by Jed of the sunrise. It was tricky painting the people. I had to go back and forth between the light and the dark colors.
