Here are the other three from the day I did 6 wedge brush envelopes because Irene's envelopes lured me into getting out my brushes and gouache - or maybe it was watercolor.
Sharon's was really wimpy without the dots. It reminded me a little bit of a peacock tail - and Sharon is the one who sent a pretty peacock card in October - and there is a peacock on the stamp.
Janet's has some mutant tulips - and she used to live in a very very very Dutch community. I love the community and I love tulips - and I can''t believe I have not brought up rosemaling with Janet. Although that might not be the right word. There is a lot of decorative painting in the Northern European countries that I just love. I was thinking I could make the brush strokes go both directions. I need to find a book or a lesson on YouTube.
This one is so wimpy - I can't believe I am allowing it to be on the blog.
Grace's is wimpy, too. Apologies - I'm feeling like I've gotten a grip on how to approach the Jan envelopes. I hope I'm right.
