FROM SKETCHES to BRAIN FREEZE






I literally spent about 9 1/2 hours on my deck yeterday trying to get inspired! Here are a few of the sketches...some were ideas for the ACETSY CHALLENGE...(I really wanted to create a piece of Mother Nature)...some were just silly!

  1. Hey Debbie ;o) I find it's interesting to look at people's art, when they are just sketching! I really don't think any of them are silly,(maybe brain freeze, LOL)! The one with the eye, nose and mouth, has alot of emotion in it! The one with the woman alone, was that suppose to be mother nature? If it is, maybe she could be holding an animal or animals? Just a thought ;o) I hope the 9 and half hours was relaxing, not too stressful ;o) Take Care ;o) and Keep On Smiling ;o)

  2. Hey Debbie, when you look at the red paint one, (the one under the tree, bird and mother nature), it looks like to animals playing! Maybe two baby deers? You can see the legs and the faces. One standing up and one laying down. Well, that's what I see ;o)

  4. Hi Lil Crow....I had a hard time putting this post up...I will e-mail about it to you later...the red one you are talking about was the juice from a fresh strawberry that I just let drip on the paper...I do see the deers...one standing and one laying?! I took a pic of another
    strawberry splatter and it looked like a dancing lady...but it didn't come out...I will re-do it and post it...the lady with long hair was something I wanted to accomplish for the challenge...mother nature...but I would have to clothe her...it is hard to re-create her onto an ACEO...I did a quick watercolor study of a crow too....would you like to see it?
    ohhhhh...and funny story about the brain freeze...I told my husband I just couldn't get inspired...and that I had brain freeze...he told me...then just draw brain freeze as you feel it should look.....so I scribbled and then painted it!
