Today’s challenge was to draw a rainbow. I went through a number of idea with putting rainbows in different landscape scenes but thought to myself “how usual.” I decided to take a simple pen drawing of a women holding some balloons and add some color. The piece is entitled “Rainbow of Balloons.”
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.
I went back to my roots for today’s art offering entitled “On The Way to School.” I used to love sitting down at my art desk and creating a landscape painting. I have done landscapes in pastels, acrylics, pen and ink and this one on colored pencils. I hope you enjoy this painting.
“A Woman by the Sea,” is a simple #2 pencil drawing done on tan card stock. I love the look of pencil on paper. I hope to offer some more of these simple drawings in the future. As an artist it is always good to get back to the basics and just drawing.
