Listening

Another of my odd people paintings. I think this one grows on you. Any way they are fun to do. The weather here is awful, gale force winds, trees down, cold and the odd squally shower.

Waiting

I am not sure where I am going with these, this is the first of a possible series. Playing around with simple figures and paint using gesso as well. I think probably I am just having fun.

Draw an eye.

A little bit of fun using prompts from Carla Sonheims book, drawing imaginary animals. Love that book, when I need a bit of a prompt for a fun sketch.

Not a lot going on

This is on its side, I am sorry, not sure what is going on as I have it right side up and then it flips again. Any way this is a page I did for my colour me positive challenge and the prompt was enough. I had the shell I had picked up off the beach a few days ago so sketched it. I think what I said was that being alive was enough. That is the way I feel at the moment. Freezing cold, wet and windy today and no walk. Ah well there is always tomorrow.

Not really a sketch or painting

I suppose it is a sort of collage. Week 24 of Colour me positive, It was courage and we had to put the quote and a boat some where in it. I found an old National Geographic map of the ocean floor and used that as my base with a ship cut out of newspaper with the feeling that it needed courage to sail in a sea when you didnt know what was beneath you. I have been terribly tired lately and am struggling to get things done. Cold and damp and dull is probably the problem.

From my sketchbook

Playing around with a few ideas and shapes.

Week 21 and 22 of Color me positive

Bother bother, I dont know how that first one turned upside down, it was ok in my file. Sorry you will just have to wear it as I dont have time to fiddle with it. I was late doing these but had a bit of fun with them, especially the 2nd one as I didnt really have to worry about making mistakes.
