I added the word FRANCE by using the brass stencils and then filled in the letters with red paint markers.
Jeannine says – If you’ve seen the July/August 2017 issue of Cloth Paper Scissors, you may have noticed this on the cover: “23 Tips for Creating While You Travel.” Yes, we’ve loaded this travel and adventure-themed issue with a lot of techniques, projects, and ideas for creating art on the road, and we aim to deliver on our promise.

Dive into the colorful world of nature with Jacqueline Newbold! She will guide you step-by-step as you explore various ways to use watercolor paints and mixed-media to create a naturalist art journal. Keeping a journal of your field notes, drawings, and paintings of the natural world will enrich your experiences with nature and help develop your skills as an artistic naturalist. Jacqueline shows how to capture the essence of the wonderful world of feathered and furry creatures with simplified, easy drawing methods, colorful painting techniques, and creative mixed-media embellishments. This is great workshop for beginner to advance painters that want to improve their painting skills.
I have an article about what is needed to paint outside. There are more photos from my journals on the Cloth Paper Scissors Blog.

| With my thumb, I measure from the bottom of Haystack Rock to the bottom at the tallest part. |
 |
| Now I measure how wide the rocks are. |
 |
Here I am using my pencil at a slant to get the correct slope of the rock. Carefully bring this angle down to your watercolor paper.
 If I want to add some of the ocean cabins, I measure how tall they are.  Here is how tall the nearest point of land is compared to the house and the other rocks. |
Then add smaller shapes within your large initials.
Pick a color scheme warm or cool. I chose a warm palette so I painted all my shapes with yellows, oranges, reds and combinations of these colors. The gold leaf pen lines will act as a resist to the paint.

I designed a kit with Daniel Smith Art Supplies called the Jacqueline Newbold Watercolor Traveling Kit. It is a perfect way for beginning watercolor artists to fill their color palette. This kit has it all (just add a pencil!). I picked 12 colors, one for every color on the color wheel, my favorite folding palette, several brushes, a zippered case and an Arches watercolor journal. This would be the perfect companion to go with with my new DVD, Art Journals-On-the-Go. You will be able to create beautiful, colorful paintings with the colors I recommend!
