:greetings-waveyellow:Hi everyone, it's been ages since I coloured, I didn't realise just how long it had been until I saw my last entry on the blog was in August!  Been off FJ for a bit as well but hopefully back posting and colouring regularly. This page is from my Molly Harrison book, Whimsical World #2, I used my not so new Derwent Inktense pencils and a water brush. It's the first time I have used the pencils with water and I'm over the moon with the result. Instead of putting the colour down on the page then going over with the brush I took the colour onto the brush then used it like paint to get the picture the way I wanted, it made shading and blending so easy. I love the way it turned out and really can't wait to start a new page.

What a beautiful page!  The colors remind me of the shimmery inside of an abalone shell...very artistic.   :my_shy:

      I really think it depends where you live as to what attitudes people have towards kids. I always felt really insecure about having my kids in public in Southern Ontario (where mega families were common) because people were unbelievably judgy about how they behaved and my parenting in general.
       

      Then we moved to downtown Montreal, where having more than 1 kid was considered a big family, and everyone is just so kind and supportive and encouraging. No one batted an eye at them. I swear that’s why we moved here.

      I feel like they're just regular old Fall family portraits...it's that time of year! All my clients are getting on the books for their Christmas card photos now too. At first I thought maybe an announcement based on the bear with pink ribbon, but I actually think it's more possible that is just to honor the loss they had. I can't imagine they'd give that much away prior to a big announcement. I could be wrong though.

      My bet is it's all for show so they're not changing anything.  After all, these people side hugged their own kids.

      Catch me up on the Bradrick family? Are they the ones that had a daughter in law wear a yellow wedding dress?

      Bradrick! and wife #1 Kelly were the darlings and the couple-of-the-year and marriage of the year  amonst the Vision Forum elite.

      Kelly and Bradrick! proceeded to quickly have six children before the perfect marriage imploded and Kelly sued for divorce, based on...nobody knows for sure.  I

      n the meantime,  Vision Forum had imploded because Doug Phillips was exposed as a sexual predator;  the Vision Forum gravy train left the station and left Bradrick! high and dry.  The young couple headed to the Pacific Northwest where Bradrick!'s family lives and Bradrick! became a realtor.  There's a classic photo of Kelly pregnant and maybe even barefoot, standing on the deck outside their mobile home on a damp day, surrounded by very young children. She looked so...over it. 

      Bradrick! stayed in the Pacific Northwest and Kelly and six kids flounced home to daddy Scottie Brown and then she married the current husband.

      I always wonder if Kelly is happily remarried or if she just said yes to the first guy who would take on 6 step kids.

      I think she unenthusiastically said yes to the first man Scotty Brown (not/never father of the year) convinced/ coerced to take her and the 6 step kids.

      I never got a positive vibe from that match.  The guy was a (I think) 30-something never married head master of a Xtian school.  

      Yeah, I'm sure it was a match made by Scotty Brown and never Kelly's choice.  I wonder if Bradrick! will get the call that Kelly is sending one or more of the kids to live with him.  I hope the kids at least get to visit Bradrick! in the summers.
