Summer

We had a few warm and sunny days. The nice weather  calls our names and we spend more time outdoors. Walks, bike rides ,hanging out in the back yard with the guinea pigs or watering my little veggie patch. No much time for sketching or drawing. The drawing in the first picture is an old one. It reflects my mood at the moment. The red shoes remind me about the pain in my right foot I am dealing with. I haven't been to the doctor yet hoping to walk it off but if it goes on like that I will have to go. I do not let it stop me from doing fun staff though. It is summer!

Thank you to the contributor of the picture I found in the Image Library of Wet Canvas and used as a reference for this drawing.I did it a couple of weeks ago but forgot to post it.

This weekend I worked with watercolors but will post them when I have some time to upload them in my PC.

My New Art Journal

I knew I wouldn't be able to go for too long without a journal so at the end of the old year I started my new art journal. It is in the technique of the altered books or in two sentences you take one old book,paint and decorate it and it turns into an altered book.If you want you can incorporate text or you can just use the language of the images.As I am more traditional person I like to write long entries for the events of my personal life and share my thoughts.

This is one of the pages in my journal.I coll aged one of my drawings onto the page which was gessoed and painted with acrylic pains beforehand.I wrote the entry with a golden color gel pen which supposed to be acid free.The drawing was completed with ink pen and watercolor pencils.

Another Page From My Art Journal

This drawing has been done with ball point pen during one of my morning breaks at work.I was working on a card project and wanted the image to remind the vintage postcards.The size is about 3x4inches.

Talking Monkey

I did this drawing for fun.It is my daughter talking monkey.It makes short records of what you say and then when you press the play button it repeats it.
I drew it with ink and colored pencils in my sketch book,size 9x12.
