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.
Today’s offering entitled Red Flowers is chalk pastel on paper.
A bunch of Tulips an acrylic paint and watercolor pencil with ink outline on watercolor paper.

All artists go through it. Those moments when you stare at you art and wonder if it is all worth it. I think it is part of the normal process of being an artist. As the canvases pile up or the notebooks become filled with drawing you being to wonder about what you’re going to do with all the art work you’ve created. I had the same thoughts a few years ago so I stepped back from my art and wrote a fiction novel and a couple books of poetry.
While this seemed to fill the gap for a time and if I could stop procrastinating I would do more fiction writing, art is still mu first love. I love the feel of a pencil or brush in my hand and the satisfaction you get with a newly finished piece of art so I returned to creating art a couple of years ago. I am still not at the level of creating I want to be but I still love creating.
I still have the problem of what to do with all of my art work but I plan on creating an online gallery and post other artwork on Pinterest. In the end not matter what I will keep on creating while I try to figure out where and how to sell some of my work. My advice to anyone reading this who is wondering what to do with their art life..Just Art It…and keep creating.
Since it is Sunday today’s art is a very simple offering of pen and colored pencil. I chose a sea gull so everyone who lives in the colder climates can think of warm happy thoughts.
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.
