October SketchBox Review…!

So I’m one day late writing about the October SketchBox, even though I indulged in the wonderful things sent a couple weeks ago, I’m slow to post.

First let me say, I love using red, black, white and gray color palettes. And was then excited to see these acrylic inks that are shimmery, or iridescent. SketchBox is great about sending new, unique, and interesting things! The prompt this month was “movement”, and all I could think of was someone running, or dancing, and then I thought of carousel horses, moving up and down, and round and round. Most of the horses have tails and manes made to look like there are flowing and blowing in the wind, so that’s what I chose as my subject.

The small travel sketchbook/watercolor included was a little small for me to work with, and couldn’t accommodate my horses, so I used another sheet of paper. I like the watercolor sketchbook, but I’m older, and it just cramped me up to try to go so small. Loved the inks, and ink brush, although I experienced a few big ink blobs! And one in the middle of my horses…you “love and learn” as my mama used to say, so I had to do damage control.

So thanks @getSketchBox for another great premium monthly SketchBox…you hit it out of the park as always! 👏🥰😎
