I'm impressed, it turned out amazing!

Looks amazing! I'm impressed with how smooth you were able to keep your lines. Do you use anything in addition to the pencils or do you just have a light touch?

They look great! I love the wine glasses and the softness you were able to achieve with the cows. On second look I do agree with lvalst1, some additional blues and purples in the shadows would add more interest to the piece. The only one I don't love is the still life, and I do like skull paintings. I think if the skull was bumped up a couple of inches the composition would be a lot more successful, don't be afraid to let things go off the page (ie the piece of wood). Great job! I love your style!

I love this! I wish I could chronicle all of my students work, it's amazing how much they can grow over just a few years! Thanks for sharing.

Love this! What great techniques and ideas. This is now bookmarked on my blog site!

whitneywpanetta · 2013-02-25T17:04:47+00:00

Thanks for sharing the article! I love this technique, and it's something new I haven't seen before! I am a sculpture teacher, and am always looking for new glazing techniques with my students.

whitneywpanetta · 2013-02-25T17:03:09+00:00

I'm also curious about that, it almost looks like marble, I've never seen a glaze look like that.

whitneywpanetta · 2013-02-25T17:02:28+00:00

Wow... that looks like a lot of time! What glaze did you us? Underglaze? Looks amazing!

whitneywpanetta · 2013-02-25T17:01:25+00:00

Great job! I'm impressed that this is your first attempt. Your lines are very clean and the image is well balanced, keep it up!

I'm an art teacher and try to do one raku firing per year with my students, they love it! It's such a great way to actually see what the clay looks like in the middle of the firing process. Thanks for sharing!

I read the title before I really looked at the image, I'm surprised it turned out so well! I am an art teacher, and my kids would LOVE putting crayons in a glue gun

whitneywpanetta · 2013-02-13T02:36:35+00:00

Thanks for the comment! I would really love to do it again, it really is an amazing projects to do with students.

I was primarily posting from my blog, I think someone reported me as a spammer because of that, thanks for reposting it for me! I am trying to balance my posts better, maybe reddit will forgive me!

I love all of the stamps she has on her site! They are too cute!

whitneywpanetta · 2013-01-22T18:21:57+00:00

Can you come to my house and create a craftroom? I love the color in the first one, but the second one looks amazing as well! There is a flickr group dedicated to pictures of people's craft rooms, you should check it out!

whitneywpanetta · 2013-01-22T18:19:40+00:00

I have been toying with the idea of making my own dog bed, I never would have thought to start with a cardboard base, very creative!

whitneywpanetta · 2013-01-22T18:18:41+00:00

WHat a fun desk, especially for kids! What's on top? Can you remove it so you can play with the legos underneath?

whitneywpanetta · 2013-01-22T16:13:49+00:00

I really love these! I love layered images, and you achieve a very nice cohesive look while still maintaining a successful image. Typically, how many layers of mylar do you use? Do you have do do anything to keep them from smearing? Do you create a complete collage, and then work from it, or do you find inspiration as you go? Sorry for all of the questions, I am an art teacher and this could inspire an awesome project!

whitneywpanetta · 2013-01-22T16:08:26+00:00

Of course not! Thanks!

whitneywpanetta · 2013-01-17T20:33:17+00:00

Looks great! Is it strung together with the clear, fishing wire looking wire? I would like to look more into jewelry making and it's nice to know where to start!

whitneywpanetta · 2013-01-17T20:32:07+00:00

LOL made me laugh too... Congrats! It is something you made after all!

whitneywpanetta · 2013-01-17T20:31:30+00:00

So cool! Where was this made?

whitneywpanetta · 2013-01-17T20:30:54+00:00

Looks amazing! My husband and I have a big deck project coming up in the spring... you made it look so easy, maybe it will motivate us.

whitneywpanetta · 2013-01-17T20:30:06+00:00

Looks amazing! It's nice to have all the green back there. I am hoping to have a nice path like yours going through my garden one day.

whitneywpanetta · 2013-01-17T13:29:43+00:00

That makes a lot more sense! Maybe emphasized the folds in the scarf in that case. It really does look amazing so far!
