Illustration Friday:Red

When I was a little girl my favorite color was red.I had my pink period much later in life.To be exact when I had my daughter.But in my childhood it was all about red!Black and red ink pen Micron and Millennium and a watercolor wash.

Sketchbook-2014

Sketchbook is such a delicious, inspiring word. Every time I hear or read it my imagination starts simmering with hundreds of new ideas.They usually come though, when I do not have time to try them.When I have a lot of time they somehow disappear and I have hard time coming up with something to draw or paint.And.... this is how I feel at the moment.....Posting pages of my new/and not so new anymore /sketchbook I am trying to find some inspiration for the weekend.
This sketchbook was an unexpected present to myself for Christmas.I was rushing through Barnes and Nobel looking for a last moment present for my husband.It was so crowded and hard to navigate through the isles. Accidentally I knocked something over with my shoulder and that was It.Nice,simple with beautiful off white paper.
I thought to myself: "Oh,you are so beautiful and so delicious with  all your blank pages!!!You are coming home with me!"
