This is the place in front of the university library in Freiburg but the sketch doesn't look like the library... yet?

Used pen and ink brush over a photo, then filled in the color. Not much to see, but fun to do at the time.
The dark lines of light pouring of the crying sky
On the shoulders of the artist.
Like the lines streaming from her dark pencil
Onto the light paper
While creating dark and running images of
A cloudy day on the sea.
Like the lines of our lives dropping slowly from the
Artists trained hand into the complex drawing
Of reality mixed with imagination so that we cannot
Tell them apart, just like we
Cannot separate the waves.
What is reality if not
A sketch of light?
a collection of sketches on napkins borrowed from the cafe at the Sydney Museum of Contemporary Art - unfortunately when they are scanned they lose all the wrinkles and texture.
Captured in: Smithtown NY.
The color blue can help express one's feelings, or be felt in the stylings of a particular type of music. It can be seen when looking deep into someone's eyes, or among the many colors of the rainbow... Blue exists in a variety of different things, and takes on a variety of meanings.
The task of this week's Macro Monday assignment was to show a small object that is mostly (or prominently features) the color blue. My take on this particular subject "led" me (ok, pun intended) to the blue pencil... Not only does the subject itself feature the color blue, but by definition the term "blue pencil" is also used to express the work done by an editor:
"If a person goes over a piece of writing with a blue pencil, they remove or change some of the words to improve it or make it acceptable" -- Cambridge Dictionary. I always thought that job was best handled by a red pencil, but guess that blue is a pretty versatile color.
HMM, and have a great week!

"Sketching in Blue" is a non-HDR image that was processed using a combination of ACR, Photoshop, and Topaz Labs plugins (Adjust, Clean, Denoise, Glow, and Impression).
Note: This is a reupload due to some sync errors in Adobe Lightroom Classic which unfortunately caused some photos that were uploaded previously to be deleted as well.
With Tanjong Pagar Railway Station being open during a public holiday, I took the opportunity to take as many photos as I could before its original look is soon lost to redevelopment. That also meant a lot of people at the station that day, so that meant some form of creativity was needed to make the best of every limited space.

366 et dernier croquis pour ce projet de calendrier perpétuel sur fiches de bibliothèque (7,5x12,5cm) entamé il y a 1 an et demi. Il faut encore cacheter les dates et trouver un moyen d'assembler ces 188 fiches.

South of town there is a grove of trees in the middle of a field. In the winter, it looks like an island with the snow banked all around. (I think this sketch actually gains something in large size.)
Also, you maybe wondering why the gesture seems vaguely familiar. I learned how to draw landscapes by studying Rembrandt for years. I love his quick pen gestures.
by Albert Bierstadt
Bierstadt's beautifully crafted paintings played to a market eager, in the 1860s for spectacular views of the nation's frontiers. Bierstadt was an immigrant and a hardworking entrepreneur who had grown rich pairing his artistic skill with a talent for self-promotion. The unveiling of one of his canvases was a theatrical event. He sold tickets and planted news stories, strategies that one critic described as the "vast machinery of advertisement and puffery." A "great picture" was elaborately framed and installed in a room with carefully controlled lighting. At the appointed time, the work was revealed to thunderous applause.
Bierstadt painted "Among the Sierra Nevada, California" in his Rome studio, then showed the canvas in Berlin and London before shipping it to the United States. Works such as this fueled the image of America as a promised land just when Europeans were immigrating to this country in great numbers. When the painting was shown in Boston, one critic recognized that the landscape was a fiction invented from Bierstadt's sketches of the West. Nevertheless the writer felt that it represented "what our scenery ought to be, if it is not so in reality."
