It has been awhile since I entered a new blog. A lot has happened in the last 8 months. I moved again for one! I went farther north on the California coast. We really love where we are at! I have also finished my calendar and moved onto making jewelry so my 2014 calendar paintings have been sent off to the publisher and my 2013 Butterfly Note Nook Calendar is now Renee Charisse Jardinehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07554584140625259196noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3155256881257348548.post-46894771805024347872012-01-25T13:54:00.000-08:002012-01-25T13:54:33.995-08:00Started Painting My 2014 CalendarNow that I am up on the coast my paint is taking it's time to dry. Something I had not experienced in Tuolumne where the air is much dryer. Before I would have to paint fast so my layers would not set up before I would finish one. Another switch, for my 2014 calendar I have decided to paint more than one butterfly per image and not have such a strong focal flower as in the past.Renee Charisse Jardinehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07554584140625259196noreply@blogger.com3tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3155256881257348548.post-56007986740348928862012-01-05T09:17:00.000-08:002012-01-05T09:17:06.622-08:00I have moved!!

• Drawing the Butterfly There once was a day when I painted butterflies without using any tools such as photoshop or the internet to find images. My images came from field guide books and my tools were simply a piece of paper to make a template, a pencil and scissors. To create an even butterfly I would fold the paper in half & draw half of a butterfly.

This takes the pressure off of me (and the potential buyer) and I am never disappointed if they decide they do not want to purchase. It's all good.
