‘Somehow he felt different after visiting the art gallery.’ Herbert, pen on bleedproof paper, approx. 210 x 150 mm. Just a quick post as my youngest daughter is not well at the moment (upset tummy, nothing major except for the fact she is only 7 months old) and I need to be with her. I […]
Afterwards, acrylic on board, approx. 300 x 300 mm. I’ve been meaning to attempt an Illustration Friday challenge for some time now. This week’s is ‘afterwards’ and after one busted attempt to fulfill it, I thought that yet again I would miss it. But late this afternoon I came up with a sudden simple idea […]
‘Special precautions were required when Uncle Bill came to visit.’ Little House, pen on bleedproof paper, approx. 290 x 200 mm Is it a little sad that when prompted with the phrase ‘little house’, the first thing that came to mind was a toilet? Or should I blame it on being Australian? In any case, […]
I did art today, but I can’t post it until tomorrow 🙁 I also worked up a concept for this week’s Illustration Friday and may make a first attempt at that challenge. I didn’t have a chance today. So what am I going to post about tonight? Memories in scribbles. We are currently looking at […]
I did my first acrylic painting in nearly ten years today. It’s not much, but it is finished. Embers, Acrylic on board, approx. 300 x 300 mm. Hmm, jpegs certainly can’t handle reds very well. This is rather more orange than it appears in this piccy. That and the poor lighting make for a pretty […]
Okay, so it is now technically the 7th November, but last night I crashed on the couch with my arms full of baby so I simply stumbled off to bed. No summary of art done, no post. Ugh. But here I am today, stealing time over breakfast. So what happened in my creative neighbourhood this […]
Hmm, a convergence of fives 😀 Today’s art was just as scarce as my previous two, except the one doodle I managed to start and poke at for the previous two days has now been completed. Wind, pen on fineliner paper, approx. 200 x 100 mm. Back in 2006, Hubby and I went on the […]
Okay, I blew it today. Busy all day, visitors, a trip to the doc’s for Izzy (she’s fine), and I traded my last little bit of doodle time for a shower. I did start a doodle, but barely had time to do anything and I’m exhausted. So no art today 🙁 So, why am I […]
Didn’t have a very good day today. Izzy was teething and unsettled so I had to attend to her, so KJ got bored and destructive, I got angry and frustrated…it wasn’t a good time. So there wasn’t much art done. The only thing I managed was a doodle at the last minute in front of […]
I’ve been drooling over mandalas for some time now, so yesterday I decided that today’s art project as part of Art Every Day Month would be a mandala. I had no idea what I was doing other than I was doing it. It needed to be round, so I dug up my compass set and […]
