More Faces

I have been struggling with the quality of the paper and watercolours...so I have decided to use pencil more and watercolour on watercolour paper only. Hopefully this will show more of an improvement as time goes on.

Until next time....happy creating

More Faces....

I know that I haven't quite kept up with a drawing a day, lots of traveling and dental work and life just get in the way. Anyways. I do believe that I am only two drawings behind.

Here are the latest.... I know most are a bit scary.....but I promised myself to practice and be accountable.


Until next time....happy creating

The First Five

So far I've done 5 watercolour or watercolour pencil sketches of faces. I know it's a day early for posting, but I'm travelling and won't be posting until I return the week of January 15th.




Improvements are expected, I hope.

Until next time....happy creating

Welcome in 2019!

Well, well...deep, deep thoughts for my creative self. Not much is happening in that department right now! I took quite a long break in November/December not posting a lot, just enjoying the space and time to reflect and try and figure out what I'm going to focus on this year. Well, so far not a lot is appearing to me. As a result, this morning I thought to myself, why not just concentrate on ONE element - like "a face a day"! This can be a quick sketch, a mixed media, watercolour, acrylic one any size; whatever I decide - just ONE a day for the year. Yes it's a challenge, but seriously I need a push now and then and who knows I may find my STYLE while doing this!

I will only be posting these once a week - let's commit to Sunday's. However the first two Sundays I am travelling so I will be late. I WILL be ACCOUNTABLE for the daily challenge and will post ALL renderings when I return from St. Maarten's!

Until next time...happy creating

Wise One

I finished the whimsy, Forest Girl whom I now have renamed to "Wise One"....who listens! Thank you Tamara LaPorte for sending me this free lesson. I'm very happy that I've learned so much and have a lot more confidence in drawing faces...even whimsical ones. Now all I have to do is to find my own style of whimsy.

Whimsy Forest Girl

Yup, I'm back at the "faces" especially the whimsy ones. I had an opportunity to revisit Tamara Laporte and her whimsy girl, so I went along....changed her up a bit, I am calling her "Wise One" because she listens to the wise owl on her shoulder. She is almost complete.

Until next time...happy creating
