resurrection
Hey! I had my right hip replaced, so time out from making art. But now I’m limping around again, and could get out to my studio! Hoorah! I spent most of my studio time working on a careful and fussy painting, so for the daily I just blew it out and used up the colors on my palette. No apologies!
ALT: a green being something like a praying mantis but minus one set of legs, and a head a bit more like a frog, eyes and arms uplifted before an aggressive red and purple sky.
one more last one
ALT: crayon drawing. A child eagerly reaches for an ice cream cone that an adult is handing them, although the placement is pretty awkward. I didn’t think I’d get into the studio today, what with preparations for tomorrow’s surgery, but hey! I found an hour so so and that was a treat.
last call
ALT: crayon and acrylic. Some kind of bird, with storky orange legs and bill, blue and purple plumage, tail a bit like a rooster. Abstract green and blue background, to use up the acrylic paint currently on my palette. I’m going for a hip replacement on the 27th, and probably won’t be able to get to my art space for a week or two. So cheers till then.
wiggle and shout
ALT: crayon drawing, abstract. A bunch of curly mauve and lilac curly lines, surrounded by some short straight yellowish shout lines. Probably I’ll add some more to this one, if I feel like it.
river of souls
ALT: crayon drawing, abstract. A flowing pink and purple shape, diagonal across the page, with yellow/red streaks, and several glowy yellow/red orbs. A bigger glowing orb at the top right, in light blue ground. On the other side, swirling dark blue and purple.
storm looms
ALT: crayon drawing. two rather meat-colored clouds sit heavily in a dark blue watery sky. Or maybe it’s islands on an ocean. Soft green and pink land in the foreground, with some prickly foliage of imaginary writing spinning across it in pink and green.
stitching of wounds
ALT: crayon drawing, abstract. A big pink sack-like shape is surrounded by some meandering lines, apparently drawn by a couple of winged bug-like shapes. There’s some other stuff going on, something that looks like a tadpole in the upper left corner, which might have emerged from the sack? I don’t know, I was just doodling, but I think upcoming surgery is always in the back of my mind.
moon over mountain
ALT: crayon drawing. A big round moon outlined in magenta, has a face with eyes closed in repose, and a bindi on their forehead. The sky is yellow, and below are some rugged purple mountains.
facing the weather
ALT: crayon drawing. A person stands wrapped in a long coat or cloak beside a tree that still has some red-yellow leaves on it. More leaves are blowing in the wind. The person is outlined in mostly blue and purple, and doesn’t look very happy but I guess somewhat resolute.
uneasy sits the crown
ALT: crayon drawing. A pointy, gangly, bird-like creature (mostly pink) wears a crown but doesn’t look too happy about it. Background is yellow land and blue sky. There’s an odd red shape behind the bird’s neck. Is it a sort of pyramid mound on the horizon? or indication of some kind of wound?
