       I made another lighthouse earrings for the December craft show.

      I did a little test tatting for Shuttle Creations.  The pattern is called, "The Only Rings Square."

Wash

       I added watercolor pencil to the background.  Then, took a lightly, dampened brush to activate the pencil, into a wash.  It's a little intense, so I'll dab it with a dampened paper towel to lift some of the pigment off and go over it with a lighter colored pencil.

Foundation

        I finished the underpainting of my lily.  I used my, favorite, Chameleon markers.  Now to add the background.

      Here is the final version of, "I Sea the Light."

      Even though, we are back from our Oregon coast trip, I'm still designing coastal jewelry.  This pendant was my prototype called, "I Sea the Light."

     A couple of months ago, I found a plastic pouch full of tatting books from the thrift store.  The pouch was only $3, so I had to buy it.  In the pouch was an interested book by Joy Botchlet, called Tatting Dimpled Rings.  Here is one of the cross patterns.
