FF Weeds 01




Saw the movie "Miss Potter." Started reading Beatrix Potter's stories and taking a closer look at her art. She's quite good on both counts. Soft landscapes of the Lake District of England--with her "friends" in them. I've been looking particularly at her weeds and ground cover. A great style. I thought I try my hand at it. How about yours?

CHALLENGE: Weeds

Let's try exalting the down-trodden, literally. Let's draw weeds. They aren't hard to find.

Drawing day

That's a person, there, and some tiger lillies.

salty VBS projects




As promised here is one salt shaker. It's pen and ink. I couldn't find a pencil when I started sketching, and my muse had been used up on the puppet and VBS project....so I just had to get through it....someone once told me art becomes something more when it's created even without a muse.....
thanks for restarting this.
