We are excited for our brushwork lesson #23! This homeschool handicraft project is from the book, Brushwork Elementary Brush-Forms by Marion Hudson, and is called Design of Mountain Ash. It features five prominent branches, with designs of feathery, compound leaves and bright orange-red berries, each a hallmark of the mountain ash tree. If you've been following along with us in our Brushwork Series, you're going to find this lovely design to be easy and incredibly rewarding. Our Grid Paper With most of our brushwork lessons, we have adapted the grid paper design in the book to our own grid paper. For...

Our homeschool handicraft project for today is brushwork lesson #22 from the book, Brushwork Elementary Brush-Forms by Marion Hudson. This lesson is called a Lesson on Mountain Ash, featuring feathery, compound leaves and bright orange-red berries. By now in our brushwork series, we are really moving beyond the nitty-gritty, practice part. Painting actual flowers, leaves, branches, and other parts of nature, makes this handicraft even more enjoyable and meaningful. Our Grid Paper With most of our brushwork lessons, we have adapted the grid paper design in the book to our own grid paper. For this lesson, I decided to...

Today's homeschool handicraft project is Lesson #21 in our brushwork series from the book, Brushwork Elementary Brush-Forms by Marion Hudson. Brushwork Lesson #21 is a Design of Ivy, and is a really beautiful way to practice that the brush forms and ivy that we learned in Lesson #20. Once you start painting ivy with its' creeping vines and 5-star leaves, you won't be able to stop! Redrawing the Design on Our Grid Paper Your grid paper is probably going to be different than that in the book. I say this because I looked everywhere for grid paper that was similar to the...

Today we are moving on to our next project in our brushwork series, which is lesson #19 in the book, Brushwork Elementary Brush-Forms by Marion Hudson. This is part of our homeschool handicraft curriculum. Brush lesson #19 is called a Lesson on Ducklings and Pond, and since there is not much cuter than some little, yellow ducklings, we are excited to get started! If you've been following along with us in this brushwork series, you will find much of this very familiar, as we covered similar brush strokes and animals in A Beginner's Guide to Brushwork, Lesson #19, which was...

After abandoning our design grid in our last lesson (and loving it!), for our brushwork lesson #18, we are returning to the grid. We are working through the book, Brushwork Elementary Brush-Forms by Marion Hudson, as part of our homeschool handicraft curriculum. Lesson #18 is a Lesson on Hares and Leaves. Now, I'm going to be honest - the hares may take a little imagination, and the leaves look a little more like lily pads, but again, this isn't about realism. Our goal is to practice and improve our brush forms, while enjoying the process. ...
