Listening

Friday life drawing.
Tired
but a good morning.

time to play with my watercolours...
:)



I wait
patiently and still.
I have waited a long time.
With the knowledge my time will come.
I sit
listening for the sign.

Jessie, these are terrific! I love human body studies. I am not very good with it. My right arm and hand need to be in the right position for me to be able to draw, so I appreciate it when I see well done illustrations. As for watercolors, I totally suck, not just the paper. Haha!

Wonderful sketches. I do love watercolors though. The softness of them. Lovely work girlfriend.

Maybe it's this lack of seeing people around that my mind is turning towards houses and flowers? The ones above are done in ink. I love the pearlescent inks, they're so beautiful when they catch the light. The paintings above and below are painted in acrylic. I've been obsessed with watercolour for a few weeks but I felt I'd like to get some acrylics out again. I've always been like this, going through phases of being obsessed with a particular medium thinking yes this is it! This is my final medium and then finding myself being drawn to changing once again to a different way of wor...
