This is my newest attempt. Sunset Silhouettes Scan0012
I did it on computer paper so I wouldn't ruin a good canvas (so you can see where the paper scrunched up under the pressure of the sponge. Try to ignore that insha'Allah hehe ). I learned this with a book by Donna Dewberry. For a beginner her books are great. Here's a sample of what I mean (this is a video of how to paint roses -*TURN THE SPEAKERS DOWN IN THE BEGINNING AND END- MUSIC*).

and this one is teaching how to use a round brush

Now, off for some tea green-tea-cup Insha Allah fruitandveg

Oh mashaAllah sister, that's simply beautiful!! I love the leaves on the tree, the different textures. You must be so happy with it. Shout Shout

The first tutorial was really brilliant, she made painting those roses look so easy. I love the idea of the glitter afterwards. MashaAllah she has such a good relationship with her brushes.

Keep up the good work and Jazakallahu Khairun for sharing those videos. I'm so happy that you did this.

Shout Love So happy you guys liked it! It was so much fun to do. I like this one. The roses video was amazing eh? The roses are so pretty. Sis Mabsoota I thought of you and sis Aisha when I was watching it.

I can see why you guys paint - it's absolutely fun and sooo relaxing Subhanallah . I enjoy it so much Alhamdulillah . Insha'Allah I'm going to get some more of her books and watch some more of her videos to learn more but the roses are too advanced for me just now hehe . I'll leave those to our Garden experts wink painting insha'Allah.

Jazakallahu Khairun for feedback and encouragement sisters

MashaAllah your painting is beautiful and I think very worthy of being painted on a good canvas inshaAllah! cool

Great videos too barakAllahu feekee. I tried to edit them to link off-site but then the links wouldn't work for me - maybe due to my strange connection problems. Wa Allahu alem.

I have been wanting to get my paints out again for ages - maybe tomorrow inshaAllah! smile

JazakiAllah

JazakiAllah for sharing these videos.

I managed to see the first one now. Insha Allah I will try to watch the other tomorrow.

It was fun watching but way out of my league, wink definitely for Sisters Aisha, Mabsoota, Maria and a few others.

thanks Hug
