Today’s challenge was to draw or paint a puddle. I will have to do one later. Instead I went one better and did a pen drawing entitled, “The Quiet Pond in Winter.” The drawing is done entirely in pen with a little grey colored pencil highlights.

Daily Timeout for Art #40
I love doing different things with my art. Today’s offering “Brown Sheep in Meadow,” is one of those experiments. I took simple picture of sheep, drew it in cartoon form then added a cut out for the wool. After I had my picture in place I took some watercolor pencils and lightly created a background then colored it in more with colored pencils.
While the picture is not one of my favorite creations I do like the finished product.
Daily Timeout for Art #33
A little offering,”Little Blue Bird,” done in ink and acrylic on an old book page. I like the pop of color in this piece but if I did it all over again I would make the bird a little more transparent so the words on the page bleed through.
Daily Timeout For Art #25
I have just started experimenting with colored pencil this year. I have used pastels before and thought the colored pencils would blend in a similar manner to the colored pencils but boy was I wrong. Colored pencils I have found have a temperament all their own but I am having fun learning what I can and can’t do with pencils. In that light today’s drawing entitled “Flowers in Boot” I had started last year but finished for this challenge. Please forgive me for bending the rules just a little.
Drawing Challenge #13
Creating art each day is a little tougher than I thought. I am use to muddling through a piece until it looks just right. However I must also say it is fun because it makes me push myself to learn. Today’s offering is a simple pen drawing filled in with colored pencil.
Drawing challenge #11
Today’s effort is pen and ink, watercolor & color pencil on an old book page.
