yellow dress drawing

I drew a line,
I drew a line for you,
Oh what a thing to do,
And it was all “Yellow.”

face study

I have never been good at faces or hands. They’re complicated!! A friend asked me recently if I could do a family portrait. Face anxiety automatically set in. So, I’m in the process of doing some face studies. This is one, and yes, it looks like a face… but does it look like the face that belongs to the person I drew it from?… Well… No it does not! It looks a bit like Milla Jovovich. But that’s not who I was painting! Arrgghh!

christmas trees

I’m feeling rather festive today. Christmas is just a few days away. I’ve got Bing Crosby  singing in my ear. Presents are under the tree. Stockings are hung… all I need now is a little snow, a roaring fire, strong eggnog and then we’re havin’ some cool yule!
