Day Fifty-two!

Busy day today and although I had big plans to sit in a cafe and draw today, missing clothing and cut fingers made that a bit more difficult. Lets just say that by 10 am this morning I was already set for bed, never mind the entire day to follow. Anyway this was a complete free for all. A bit of a combination of drawing and painting. It felt really liberating and I think that the freedom of the work is very visible. It is far from what I would consider a completed work but I am very excited about the pencil lines showing though all over the place. Anyway, enjoy and I will see you tomorrow!

Day Fifty!

Look at that 50 drawings down, only 315 more to go, whats up!! Today I followed yesterdays image style and did something similar. They are nice quick ideas that evolve almost instantly and I love the over all look. With this particular image I liked it a lot more before I added the red but I guess I would never know that if I had not tried it, so I learned that little fact!

Today was an awesome day by the way. I went for a bike ride along the beach with the hubby, then got to celebrate one of my besties (Meagan’s) Bridal shower and meet her fab mom, enjoy a drink with my Hull girlies by the grill and finished off with a walk on the beach. Beautiful Sunday right? No complaints here, it makes for a very inspiring day! Enjoy and I’ll see you tomorrow.

Day Forty-Eight

Today’s project was relaxing, not too much to say though kinda tired. I’ll try to be a bit more chatty tomorrow. On a side note I found out that none of the pieces I submitted to the artist festival were accepted. Kinda bummed out but as I keep telling myself and others keep reminding me it’s onto the next project. On the upside I have a few works ready to go for the next thing. See you tomorrow!

Day Forty-Seven!

Today has been a great day, I went to the gym at 6:45 in the morning, and was very impressed with myself. When I got home I had a chance to work on an image before work. I have been creating all of these watercolor images which I totally love but eventually I need to amp them up  a bit. There seems to always be a pop feature missing. Anyway, I’m delighted to be posting earlier in the day and not be panicking at 10pm. For those of you who know me or read this regularly, I am going crazy, I submitted some works into my first juried show outside of college and I find out today or tomorrow whether I got any of them in… fingers crossed!

Day Forty-five!

Milestone! only 5 more to go to 50, I can’t believe I have almost made 50 drawings in 50 days. Today’s image was nice and relaxing but it feels very incomplete, so I apologize. Anyway, I’m hopefully going to the studio tomorrow and actually going to try and print! We shall see, this could be exciting though! Enjoy and I’ll see you tomorrow.

Day Thirty-nine

When I got home from the studio I didn’t really feel like taking a serious attempt at anything today so I just started painting in acrylics (which I am not very comfortable with) and this is what I came up with. It was very enjoyable after a long day and it really just developed, I never set out with an image in mind. I rearranged my working area, because although the kitchen table has been treating me well over the past few weeks I was dying to work in an area that felt like a studio and not a cluster fluff. SO the basement got completely rearranged and before you go “BASEMENT?” it’s not too bad. I mean the lighting is horrible but I work primarily at night anyway so no matter what it isn’t exactly great. What was nice was busting out some of the old mixes on my old school Ipod (which oddly enough is still alive). There were some good inspirational tunes on there here are just a few. Enjoy and I’ll see you tomorrow.
