Doodle Art – Stage One

….day 119 of the 365 Days of Art challenge

The next project will probably take three days to complete. The first stage was to draw a large doodle onto a large piece of paper without looking at the paper and then do another one but use my non-dominant hand while looking at the paper. Stage two is to take acrylic paint and start painting both papers at the same time. After the paint has dried than you go onto stage three and add line detail with black and white pens.

Here is stage one:

A Roof With Memories – June Square

…thanks to Becky B for hosting June Squares – roofs

Today is the last day of June and also the last day for June Squares. In my travels along Bloor Street last week I passed an old building that holds many memories for me. It is UTS where I completed my teacher training before embarking on my 41 year career (35 years of actual teaching with 6 years off looking after my children). Not all the memories are positive but I did learn at great deal within these old walls.

Another Downtown Church – June Squares

…thanks to Becky B for hosting June squares – roofs

This is Trinity Bellwood United Church on Bloor St. in Toronto. I’ve lived in this city most of my life and this year was the first time I set foot in the place. Actually I’ve been there three times for three different concerts. A wonderful venue for music.
