Latest drawing the beginning stages. I am just playing around with my pencils for this one. Interpretation is up to you to decide. Hope to get more of it done this week.

More sketches

Sketching done at church yesterday. Yes I do listen and I retain more when I am drawing actually. This was done with a pen which I am not too fond of but I think these came out better than had I used pencil.

Angel idea

Sketchbook idea. I just need someone to pose for me so I can make this for myself and sell the prints. Now to wait for the flu season to be over so I can get a model for myself. Suggestions wanted, should I paint, draw, or color pencil this? Haven't had much experience with portrait painting so I am leaning towards that for experience and a challenge!

End of the giraffes

Finished for the second time. My son wanted me to put trees in the background but it wouldn't be in perspective so I kept true to the warm color scheme and just added a little grass on the ground around them. I think he will like this. I personally liked the minimal background before of just the shadows but it was his choice so I listened. My favorite is still the mother giraffe's face, it came out beautifully. It is hard to see here because of my camera, it isn't the best. I will have to scan it and post that one later. On to the next project! Let me know what you think.

Giraffe progress


Slowly making progress. Been a little tired lately at night between potty training, getting ready for the holidays and homschooling that drawing at night is almost impossible. I start to think that this is looking terrible so I stop and take a step back and realize that it is coming along better than I think.
