The Sword in the Stone is a 1963 animated fantasy comedy film, produced by Walt Disney originally released to theaters on December 25, 1963. The eighteenth animated feature in the Walt Disney Animated Classics, it was the last Disney animated feature released while Walt Disney was alive.
It is part of the 'English Cycle' of Disney animated films, which include Alice in Wonderland, Peter Pan, 101 Dalmatians, The Jungle Book, Winnie the Pooh, Robin Hood, The Great Mouse Detective, Pocahontas and Tarzan.
The film is based on the novel The Sword in the Stone, at first published in 1938 as a single novel. It was then later republished in 1958 as the first book of T. H. White’s tetralogy The Once and Future King. From Merlin’s statement that The Times won't come out for another 1200 years ("They can't wait for the London Times. First edition won't be out for at least, uh... 1,200 years."), it may be extrapolated that the film is set circa A.D. 558.

A leaf picked up in a parking lot, observed in silence for a time, then sketched to the best of my ability in a Moleskine notebook - trying to really look at the small, usually unnoticed things around us & see them -
Another lunchtime well spent with a little doodling. Spring is in the air so shout it out: Yippie, it's springtime!!

Illustration Friday's theme this week is "Jazz" , this is not a new drawing but it does fit the theme and this week I'm thankful that I have it!
It's strange that last night and the night before I didn't sleep well, I would have thought I wouldn't sleep well the night before the workshop but not after I knew it had gone well. So anyway, today I feel all draggie. Hopefully I'll perk up soon.
So it's just a regular work day today, I had gotten an e-mail yesterday from the Drop Leaf Gallery and they are wanting to get all the paintings, price sheets, photos etc, right away so they can get a good start on organizing the show. (The reception will be the day after I get back from Chicago, the 29th) Also, since last week the other Art Mom got sick we will be doing art in Tanner's class today. This is a busy time for me but it's good and feels productive.
I am wanting to look at all the Illustration Friday entries as well as catch up with my on-line friends but I guess that will wait until Sunday when I'm alone and need to goof off some.
Some friends and I had a play day where we challenged ourselves to draw freely.
I used a combination of tracing paper and gesso coated calico and came up with some very interesting images
These faces were drawn on to tracing paper using a pen and ink, and then this was blotted on to some gesso coated calico.
The tracing paper image was then left to dry and later I added colour by using ink and paint on to the reverse of the paper.
I cut out the faces and then attached them to a fragment of an old book

The life drawing on the left was created using straight pencil lines to give the figure a very sculptural form. The life drawing on the right was created using chalk and charcoal and I was trying to capture the shadows and tones of the figure.
This one is for my angora rabbit pet which we thought was a boy when we first got her. She's grown into a fluff ball that eats everything, even shoes.

This is the latest in my series of futuristic motorcycles and frankly I think it's the best. I was inspired by artist Arthur Radebaugh (no relation) who was famous for drawing futuristic modes of transportation in the 40's and 50's and so on.
from a collection of about 70+ drawings in black marker and pencil bought at the flea market. They all depict characters or actresses on TV shows of the 60s and 70s. A few are of actresses from older movies.
I believe they were done by a fan/fashion student/obsessive simply sitting in front of his/her TV set, but they might also be from a professional collection.
This is usually not my specialty in paper ephemera, but I thought it needed to be saved and kept together. If anyone has any ideas/comments/questions--let me know!
