Days 28 and 29 – Prep Days
….three more pages ready for some paint and ink
Day 27 – More Collage With Inchies
…plus and old photo of our first daughter and a drawing of a bird
Inchies for Hand Painted Papers
…inchies are 2” x 2” squares of watercolour paper
Amy Maricle turned me onto Inchies several years ago. She has several online classes that you can purchase and she frequently offers free workshops. She’s also written a book called Draw Yourself Calm https://www.penguinrandomhouse.ca/books/707819/draw-yourself-calm-by-amy-maricle/9780593541012
The Inchies on my new art page were created today (day 26) and are layered over art papers that I created a while ago.
Taking a Line for a Walk
…day 24 & 25
All the buildings and trees in this piece were made with one continuous line. Then the colour and details were added.
Day 22 – A Crazy Portrait
…over a collaged page
I did not use a photo or a model for this portrait. It’s just a fun face with eyes that are way too big and the lower portion is too narrow and not long enough. I will play with this style again.
Day 21 – Collage and Mark Making
…coloured circles and black and white ink
I stayed up late last night working on this piece and finished it when I got back from baking at the Inn and taking my three woven pieces to the art gallery.
Australian Cattle Dog
…day 20 of my daily art challenge
One of my goals in art this year is to get better at sketching. This is my fourth drawing of dogs.
Day 18 and 19
…some pieces just take longer to complete
I love this type of art. I find the process very relaxing and it can’t be rushed. It’s a cross between Zentangle and slow drawing patterns that Amy Maricle promotes.
Day 17 – Adding Marks Over Collage
…on a previously prepped page in my journal
