peering
ALT: ink drawing, abstract bright colors. Geometric shapes in reds and oranges, bordered by yellow. And then, because ultimately everything becomes a face, I drew curly black and green lines on top to make one. With a lot of extraneous other lines and dots to decorate.
drunken bonding
ALT: crayon drawing, sort of abstract expressionist I guess, two people in conversation, but definitely looking a bit off balance. I did indeed make this one after attending a show, followed by some ridiculous conversation at a local bar.
ink pots
ALT: ink drawing in bright colors: pinks and purples on a green background. Abstract-ish, the main shape could be a fancy bottle I suppose, or pile of something twisted and decorated, paired with a big pink flower shape. The decorations are mostly within teardrop shapes on the bottle thing. I was just playing with shapes and colors.
glow tree
ALT: crayon drawing of the trunk and big branches of a very yellow tree, on a background shading from deep purple to fiery oranges.
the angry eye
ALT: abstract, crayon and ink. There is something that could be the eye of a cat or a snake near the middle, and several lines of big calligraphic imaginary writing swooping around. A lot of motion/emotion.
I don’t really get tired of making these watercolors, it’s like reliving blissful vacation dreams
ALT: watercolor painting of lake, mountain and sky. This one has clouds that are more blue than gray, the mountains are distant and purplish, and the trees on the shoreline are a dark green mass of cool shade. And probably bugs.
Final post for today, I’m caught back up.
Nothing like a little line drawing to show you just how badly the scanner bed needs cleaning!
ALT: line drawing of a cat with a star on its forehead and moons in its eyes, perched with curled tail and looking over its shoulder. Two fern leaves and a few arcs and diagonal lines fill out the rest of the space. Could be used a coloring page if you so desire.
can you tell it’s water?
ALT: watercolor and ink painting, trying to depict the surface of the water reflecting the sky above and showing the ground below in the shaded part, and some leaves overhanging, in the upper right corner.
back-from-vacation but still mining the snapshots I took from the kayak
ALT: ink painting of a New Hampshire hill rising over a lake, with a couple islands of dark trees in front.
purple clou–ou-ou-ou–ou-ou-ouds
(don’t ask, you had to be there)
ALT: There’s Red Hill across the lake, but looking very purple and green, under a really violet streak of sky.
