Got a chance to do some digital coloring, using my sporty birdie sketch. I like how the digital coloring turned out… seems sort of natural and soft to me. I like it… but then again I’m not sure if it’s “done.” I’ve been held up in my birdie series project because I can’t seem to [...]
Spending time getting organized and less time in my journal. But did play a little. Just randomly drawing with a big fat Sharpie marker… Then I decided to add color very loosely. What have you been up to?
I was put into place this week as I started to lament not having time to do this or that… then the news flash came on about the Boston Marathon bombings. Yeah, we all have our own problems and challenges, but it’s never helpful to wallow. Chin up and move on. Sending love out into [...]
Random musings in my sketchbook these days. I haven’t been able to spend much time playing around with all my baby duties in full swing. Just a few minutes – literally - here and there. Lots of collaging and collecting of bits and pieces. Sometimes it’s a creatively frustrating experience to not have the time. [...]
Even with so much going on in my life now, I previously blogged about enrolling in Lilla Rogers Studio School – a course called Make Art That Sells - as an investment in my own dreams and ambitions. I had been anxiously waiting for the registration to open and can’t be more excited for it to start [...]
Recently I made myself a new journal, simple longstitch binding and opted for a larger size – A4 full page – which is more challenging for me to “fill up.” I used mixed media paper from Canson, so hopefully that will allow me to play with whatever medium I choose, day to day. I’ve [...]
Playing around with a random doodle, colored pencils, acrylic paint and the most ruined little paintbrush I had lying around…
Lots of random drawings in my sketchbook these days. Although I’ve been feeling a bit in limbo and creatively stuck when it comes to actually finishing any project, I’m realizing it’s okay to just chill at times. No concrete”to-do” to accomplish at this point… just waiting around for baby to arrive
Wishing you a lovely valentine’s day, whether with that special someone or just friends – I think it’s nice to simply relish in love today. I whipped up a little illustration in celebration, trying a slightly different line style. Let me know what you think!
This week has been really random… from simple drawings to exploration of forms within scribbles to attempts in color. My mind is definitely wandering. Still sketching a lot of birdies as well, but not sure how to continue onward to make them finished original pieces. It’s definitely one of those psychological blocks, as I’m preventing [...]
