03 15 09 lamp

Speaking of blank days here is one. I used week 2 of the weekly challenge (Draw a desk lamp or other Lamp). Well being the type of person I am here is a magic lamp. I think I need to add a genie or something. Now for those of you that blog ( it doesn't have to be about drawing or journals) how do you come up with your entry titles?

03 14 09 carousel

This is a first attempt at a horse and I think what people say is correct. Horses are EXTREMELY hard to draw. They are so graceful and powerful it is hard to catch that correctly. This keeps screaming at me to be colored in but I just can't seem to wrap around the colors. Maybe I'll have to go back to Red Robin for dessert or something so I can color her in. QUESTION: For those of you that journal. Do you ever find yourself struggling with what to draw on a given day? Especially in places you see regularly like work. How do you get over it? Lately I have just been using daily drawing or a weekly challenge from Danny Gregory to fill in the blank days when my mind doesn't seem to work. Thanks for your input!

Danny Gregory did a cool thing for his wife. Instead of buying stuff he went out and drew everything he thought she would like. This inspired me to draw a wish list. Maybe I should draw everything I buy. It would really make me stop and think how badly I want or need something.

03 12 09 Ballet

I am very very proud of myself on this one. I drew these shoes as part of a weekly challenge and was compelled to watercolor it. After the color was added it just came to life. I could almost feel her concentration and determination. I think I might have to make some bigger drawings and painting in a ballet series or something. My brain is on overtime. I have started to have a list of things I want to paint and not enough hours in the day to do them.

03 11 09 Tea cup

I drink tea a lot and this is my favorite tea cup. The strainer fits in it perfectly and it even has a lid that doubles as a coaster. Journal entry for 03/11/09.

03 09 09 Tape

This tape was buried in my car. I went out to find something to draw during a break. I barley finished it in time. I am starting to run out of things to draw at work. All I have left are plants. Journal entry for 03/09/09.
