Hey Crew!
Sorry that this post is a little late. All this week I have been preoccupied with my sick cat. But luckily the vets have patched him up and he is on the road to recovery. How have you guys been? Are you just as surprised as me that it is already August? One more month until classes start. Oh boy. Things are starting to get real now. Is there anything that you guys are looking forward to in August and/or September?
Scorpios Have Come to Town
Basic Facts about Scorpios
- Birth Dates: October 23 – November 22
- Element: Water
- Ruling Planets: Mars & Pluto
- Symbol: Scorpion
- Scorpios feel the most and deeply. They are calm and cool by nature. They are unstoppable go getters.
We are coming full circle with the elements for the Signs. It took me a while to come up with a plan to incorporate water again and not have it look like Cancer. I was also very nervous to do I bird eye view of the reflective surface of water with water ripples. But it came out WAY better than I thought it would have! I also love how Mars and Pluto came out. What do you guys think? I hope you guys enjoyed watching how this piece came together. Did you also catch where I put the hidden scorpion? I’m so sneaky. Tehehe.

So that wraps up this Sign. Things are going to be looking a little different from now on. Be sure to come back on Monday to see what is up. Are you ready to rock ‘n’ roll? It is going to be an epic adventure. See you then!
Until next time,

Were you using Gouache, by the way?

No, just acrylic. I like to water it down to play with layering.

Ah! I was going to say acrylic, first time, but thought it looked rather watery.

I prefer working with watercolors, but I wanted to widen my skills with other mediums.

Yes, good idea. I liked acrylic, myself, but found it took a lot of watering down to get really liquid and flowing.

I use like a 4:1 ratio with water to paint. And only a little bit of paint at a time. Maybe that might work better? Let me know if you try it😇
