PIRATE GIRL..... Bob helped me try out some pen and ink media last night, it was difficult at first, but then I just let the media take me here? Poor cute pirate girl, I turned her into a nasty old skeleton.
I've been attending the drawing club on Thursday nights. It's really great, quite a blast. They have great models that dress up in costumes and themed music that goes with it, add coffee and other people who love to draw and it makes for a cool atmosphere. ANyway, here is a sketch from a couple of the models over the past couple of weeks.
My friend Betsy "the gardner" gave me this pretty watercolor calendar when she went to Austria..... what to do with them month after month. Well, after moving, adjusting, parenting and trying to see the positive in all I am doing I made these tiny drawings on top of them. Instead of seperating myself as an artist and a parent and a wife, I am embracing all of the things I am into one self. A happy homemaker indeed.
Now that we are settled in.... I can continue to document my artwork. Hopefully this blog will help motivate me to keep drawing and painting and thinking as an artist.
