I don’t why I seem to love the simplest forms of art like line drawings. Though when I step back and look the line drawings always seem unfinished to me and I feel the need to add color to them. Today’s offering entitled Penguins on the March is one such drawing. It is a line drawing done in ink and highlighted in watercolor pencil. I hope you enjoy it as much as I enjoyed creating the print.
One of my favorite paintings I’ve ever painted was something like this one, it was a little girl standing on the beach watching her balloon fly off into the sky. This one, entitled A Boy and His Cat, is similar in it’s simplicity. The drawing is on white paper, outlined in pen and lightly colored.
Well here’s another one, a portrait drawing that is meant to resemble the person I am drawing but with bigger eyes. Although this one did not turn out the way I had hoped I still feel like I am making progress. Yeah, determination combined with inspiration.
A bunch of Tulips an acrylic paint and watercolor pencil with ink outline on watercolor paper.
Today’s art is a rough drawing done with a #2 pencil. I tried this picture a number of time but am still not satisfied with the end result. However this blog is not always about the finished product but about learning as I go. Oh yeah sorry for the name change to Daily Art but I figured since some of the pieces were finished pieces and others weren’t the new name more fit the bill.
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 done with a 3h and HB pencil. I am still trying to perfect my skills with drawing portraits. There are aspects of the picture I like, the purposely big eyes but there are also aspects which I would render differently, like the angle of the nose.
