Sorry Charlie but I opted for Tartan. Since my ancestors are mainly from Scotland and Ireland and I have been to Scotland three times I have a bit of an affinity with tartans. Here I have doodlewashed two of my ancestral Clan MacLeod tartans, MacLeod of Harris and MacLeod of Lewis and Raasay. My favourite would be MacLeod of Skye. I could go on about Scotland but I will spare you.
Original art by Susan Feniak Neocolor Caran D’Ache on Opus Essentials Sketchbook paper.
Hope you are having as much fun following along as I am doing a #doodlewashaday Visit Charlie O’Shields at doodlewash.wordpress.com he is the instigator of this. He might just convince you to doodlewash!!
Yay!!! This is super cool!! Love that you chose this day! These are beautiful! And extra cool that they’re your ancestral patterns. Nicely done, Susan!! 😍😍

LOL! I love it! I have a scarf the same color scheme as the one on the right. I was in Scotland back in 1990. It was so beautiful, I’d be happy to go back again. Hubby has a bit of Scot in his background (but he’s mostly Irish and German)…little enough of a bit that he won’t wear a kilt. 😉

Thank you Teresa. I have enough scot in me that given the chance I will hop on a plane and go. Too bad my kilt doesn’t fit me anymore. 🙂
