Our very first zentangles! We may have invented a new aspect too - bonding over a dual zentangle.
Bella (age 7) and I decided to do our first zentangles together, on the same piece of paper at the same time. We drew the string for each other, and then worked side by side.
It was such a nice experience, I'm going to talk Mr OodleArdle into doing one with me soon - ZenDateTangle :-)
Thank you Jo for the inspiration.
This is Mr. Eichhörnchen. He thinks he has German ancestry based on his surname. He likes wearing festive boxer shorts, and he enjoys eating a wide variety of nuts.
Sculptures drawn 17-1-2015 pencil and graphite in sketchbook.
After a couple of years of pretty intense Plein Air painting, I am now spending this winter going back to drawing. I'm not picking anything "easy" these casts and sculptures are very challenging to draw from the motif, and very soon one becomes aware of all sorts of problems. Still I will keep at it and hope something from these studies leads into my easel work at some stage.
Collection of sketches I had drawn in my early years of school while learning different drawing tools (in this case pencil and Pen & ink)... composition layout done in Photoshop
Finally got started on the comic, like I said I'm going to take my time. Decided to start off with Erikku just thinking, maybe a little depressed in the process. When suddenly Shuri calls Erikku.
My 3 yr old daughter drew this today. I asked her about it and she said, "That's me. I'm mad." LOL I thought she portrayed her self very well as looking mad in this drawing.
Aww, Jadey got Explore!! #51
Today’s sketch: Michael Jackson
I was sketching today while having lunch (and tons of coffee), and I decided to draw Michael Jackson in his final days. I was inspired by a fellow artist’s painting of MJ, and decided to do a basic sketch before a taking on a full-blown painting. My server, and fellow patrons of the restaurant, where entertained by it all, I’m happy to say.
I wanted to capture the real Michael Jackson, the sick and truthful portrait of a desperately lonely and distressed man in his final days, and not the glittering, smiling superstar of iconic status in dance-like façade.
This is why I drew the older Jackson—captured in a natural moment, and not posed; one that is near caricature but more straight-portrait—and one where we see him with his eye-wear.
It is a more truthful portrait.
Let me know if I should take this beyond a basic sketch to a full-blown painting. :}
