Cee’s Fun Foto Challenge – Any Kind of Photographer or Camera

Posted on May 9, 2018 by Mama Cormier

….thanks Cee for hosting the Fun Foto Challenge

Sometimes the challenge is going back far into the archives to find photos to match the theme. This time I had to scroll through thousands of photos over a two year period to find what I wanted. I really need a better system to organize my photos.

Journal Art – Day 89

Posted on May 8, 2018 by Mama Cormier

….exploring different styles of art for my 365 Days of Art

I’ve been following a number of journal artists but have yet to actually try my hand at it. Today is the day. Here’s my first attempt.

365 Days of Art – Tulips

Posted on May 8, 2018 by Mama Cormier

…..day 88

I’m back to sketching and after completing these tulips I decided they needed some colour. Out came my watercolours and in a few minutes my sketch was transformed.

365 Days of Art – Squiggly and Relaxing

Posted on May 7, 2018 by Mama Cormier

….day 87

Carla Sonheim’s prompt today was to create a design using lines or just doodling. This is just what I needed today. It was fun and relaxing. All three pieces were done in one of my many art journals. The first one took the longest but the other two were done very quickly.

365 Days of Art – Back to Simpler Times

Posted on May 6, 2018 by Mama Cormier

…..days 85 and 86

I’ve decided to go back to my sketch books and rework some old pieces and draw at least one new piece each day. This way I keep my hand moving and working on my drawing skills at the same time.

The first piece is one of the collages that I made with my two year old granddaughter. I added some line detail. I’m not sure that I’m done with it but it was very relaxing and therapeutic at the same time. The second piece is a sketch of my walking shoe that I was literally wearing when I sketched it.
