Roll Up for Life Drawings!

-

I went to art college a few years ago, I'm not saying how many years but it's easy to work out if you need to! During that time and for a few years afterwards I've built up a collection of my life drawings. They've been kept in a folder, tucked away out of sight but I've decided that today is the day I let the world see them and perhaps get a chance to own them if they would like to. :)

I've listed them individually on Ebay and it's open to anywhere in the world, so wherever you live, I'll be very happy to post to you!

Here are a couple....




Most of them are quite big, measuring around 20 x 30 inches and are all on paper, drawn with charcoal or pastel.

You can find them all here, I hope they'll all find good homes. The listings will end on Saturday 29th September. :)

I'm always amazed when I come across my old portfolios from art school too. I thin my favorites where the watercolor-pen & ink numbers that were really fast, but came out nicely! Oddly, they're all greek mythology themed. I'm not sure what was going on there! :)

These are so so good Jess! I want to do more life drawings. I really enjoy them. I drew my husband playing the ukulele the other day. Thanks for inspiring me further!

More Cottages During Lockdown and a Change in Medium.

I've been thinking about why I'm drawing cottages lately.  Maybe it's because there aren't many people around where we live and on our daily walks we rarely come across anyone else which I suppose is a good thing as we're still in Lockdown and have to practice Social Distancing which has now become a very well used phrase in our language! 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...
