Hope you're well and thriving, and ready for some fun, as well as a not one, not two, but three freebies to download, as befits the approaching festive season.
You're welcome to use any of the set of three graphics in this post, in any way at all that matches my angel policy. Just right-click, tap or click (depending upon your device) on the graphic(s) you'd like to use, and the graphic should download.
And if you're not in need of freebies right now...as well as if you are, this post is also a quiz.

Each of the pics in this post was created in a different way. Your mission, should you choose to accept it, is to decide which method (A, B or C) matches which Picture 1, Picture 2 and Picture 3.

Painting and Drawing Methods Used
Which of these methods do you think matches which picture? (You may have to scroll up from here to see the pictures again).
Method A One of the pictures in this post was created using 100% digital watercolour painting and digital ink sketching, in the wonderful Rebelle 5 app, (not an affiliate link, I just enjoy using it).
Method B One of the pictures was created by wetting hot-pressed, (ie smooth) 300g Bockingford Watercolour paper, splashing colours into wet areas, and then, when the areas were dry, inking in details with a black waterproof pen.
Method C One of the pictures in this post was created by sketching onto 300g cold-pressed Bockingford Watercolour Paper first, and then painting in details wet-on-dry (though white highlights were still added later).
Your answers
Your answers
When you think you have your answers, check the PS at the bottom of this post, to see if you're right.
Please note, this quiz is just for fun, there are no prizes, and the answers are at the very bottom of this post, in the P.S. section.
Whilst I'm in the business of making sure that there's enough text here to obscure the answers, this is probably a great point to remind you that my Redbubble shop is still a great place to look for gifts (most still in time for Christmas, or of course, any other time of year), and that the printable designs in my Craftsuprint shop can be downloaded 365 days a year.
With that said, I hope you had fun with this post today, and/or found something you wanted in one way or another. It's only left for me to wish you a happy week, and promise that there will be more from me soon as well as...
A P.S with the quiz answers...
And the answers are:
Picture 1 was painted using method B. The surface is smooth (ie hot pressed) and the end result has a pretty sploshy wet-in-wet look.
Picture 2 was painted using method A, and is therefore, 100% digitally painted, (even though the digital paper behind it has a really convincing rougher/"cold-pressed paper" look).
Which means that Picture 3 used method C, with its rougher paper and penwork that am feeling now might have been a little over-the-top :-) .
Whatever your answers, hope you had fun, and see you next week.
More soon.
