The Fledgling Artist

@the-fledgling-artist That’s such a fun present! I have to admit that I still struggle with gouache myself, but there are many tutorials on youtube! That best thing you can do is use them like watercolors but go from thin to thick paint like you would do with acrylic. Also gouache always dries darker compared to what the colour looks like when it…[Read more]

Aw, thanks, girl!! ❤️

@anne-of-lothlorien

Okay, thanks so much for your advice/tips/ideas!

Hey, that’s totally okay! And not your fault anyway! 😉

@pursuewisdom  (my very own dear purse of wisdom!😉❤️)

Thanks! Your so sweet!

Ooh! Can I see an art piece of yours?!

Unsplash looks amazing!

Yes!! I found the snippet…[Read more]

Tyler whirls around to face the new arrival. His hand blurs towards his hip and is suddenly stretched out before him, the 45. like pistol gleaming in the bright sun. “”Drop the sword.” He says levelly as his gun hand begins to tingle.

(Btw, if anyone cares or if there should be a fight, Tyler has more than…[Read more]

Korzen and Eirivia whipped around at the sound of the new arrival. Kor’s eyes locked onto the new guy’s sword. “Awesome,” he breathed. “I wonder if I can do that…”

Eiri elbowed her twin. “Don’t you dare.” Then she raised her voice and directed her attention to the new person. “We were just wondering the same thing. He was here. Then he wasn’t.…[Read more]

@selah-chelyah

Thanks! Hope yours was wonderful as well!

@theinconceivable1

I love that you thought of me as a hedgehog typing furiously away on a computer. That’s hilarious! 😆

@the-fledgling-artist

I made a couple knit sweaters for my sisters’ pups. 🙂

@kari-karast

Ooh, cool!  Yeah, I think I’ve done Origami… though it was a long time ago.  What do you make with Origami?

@the-fledgling-artist Sure go ahead 😀

@kari-karast Haha sure you can be a Matz protector.

@emgc

I have actually! I handmade all of my Christmas presents. (Er, well, most of them. There were a couple of presents that I’d hid and forgot about that weren’t made by me.) Origami! Everything was Origami! I love Origami! Howsabout you? Have you ever tried it?

@theinconceivable1

Heh. Tis just me being a deranged ninja. With claws, that you…[Read more]

@the-fledgling-artist, He’s introverted, a little reclusive, observant, he represses his feelings a lot, so he doesn’t really let others know how he feels, but he’s really passionate. Thank you for doing this for me. I’m excited to see how it turns out. 🙂

@evelyn, Aw, thank you. You’re so sweet. And I love your new profile picture too.…[Read more]

@the-fledgling-artist, Okay, maybe not completely lost, but  I do have trouble coming up with original plots that interest me. 🙂

@evelyn

Sounds really neat!  It’s great that your mom does that.
Thanks for the info. 🙂

@the-fledgling-artist

Oh, yeah! Totally makes sense.  I think it very admirable that you’re not rushing into anything. I’m afraid I might be a little like that… find a good opportunity, and I can tend to rush into it.  It’s definitely best to wait on th…[Read more]

@the-fledgling-artist

🙂 We, including the really good writers, all have areas where we struggle. When it comes to writing I’m pretty sure there isn’t a single writing challenge that only one person struggles with. I have to keep reminding myself of this…

@chalice

Awww, thanks! ❤

Yes, I have been stalking your blog ever since you started it and I love it! I really liked your last post…the lion is amazing and I can’t wait to see the finished product!

@evelyn @the-fledgling-artist @catwing  you guys really need to check out @chalice blog if you haven’t yet! It’s really good. 👍

@the-fledgling-artist

YAY!!! You will not regret this! It’s so awesome!

Also, if you have never seen the LOTR movies…you totally should! They are WAY better then The Hobbit movies.

@thewirelessblade

Eight younger siblings? WOW! That’s a lot of kids! I am like the complete opposite…I have seven older siblings. 😀

@the-fledgling-artist

Yes, it would!!!

Um, I am not sure. It all depends on the people I am riding with. 🙂

@evelyn

We make quite the pair…I’ve got a flying convertable and you’ve got a fairy godmother who…[Read more]

@the-fledgling-artist Yay! I hope you enjoy it. 😀

@eden-anderson @evelyn, You both are so pretty. 🙂 I like being able to see what people look like. *Raises eyebrow at @catwing* 😉

@eden-anderson, Aw, thank you! That’s very encouraging. I’m glad you enjoyed seeing my blog. 🙂 Yes, I’ve thought about submitting some artwork, but I can never decide what to submit. XP That’s a terrible excuse, I k…[Read more]

@the-fledgling-artist, Oh, cool. I’ve heard a lot about white gel pens. Mostly good things. 🙂

@christieaton, Quick question: have either of you ever used an electric eraser before?
