Musically Inclined
original musical motif abstract drawing: 7 1/2"w x 9 1/2"h
Musical Mystery
A new thing to do
When you’re bored or feelin’ blue
Let a cloth freely drop
Right over the top
Of a still life gone stale
Or one that just failed
And let a drawing begin
Using lines thick and thin
Till a theme comes alive
Or an idea starts to thrive
It’s surprising what you can find
Hidden behind time..
Master Copy - Paganini Portrait by Ingres
master copy drawing: 7 1/2"w x 9 1/2"h
An Ingres drawing
Is perfect, you know
From his first pencil mark
To his last stroke so dark
So with great trepidation
And yes, capitulation
I drew this for my assignment
In a classroom confinement
I drew as I fussed
But I got my A Plus!
Background Music
original contemporary figurative drawing on gessoed music manuscript: 9 1/2"w x 12 1/2"h
Perfect Practice
Practice makes better
But perfect?
Not ever...
Especially if drawing
Is what you can do
You’ll prob’ly improve
But that’s questionable, too
My advice to you
Buy an Etch-a-Sketch too!

I love this. I am looking forward to following your blog. I actually recognize some of you paintings from "wandering around" the blogs. I am attempting to self-teach myself watercolor - lots and lots of trial by error. You capture light quite well! Love the sunflowers!
ReplyDeleteThank you so much, Margaret! It's so great to receive positive reinforcement....I am sort of self taught in watercolor, though I have taken some workshops and an occasional class. I am fortunate to have found an artist that I paint with at times...She is excellent at drawing and composition, so that helps me through some problems I make for myself! but she doesn't know much about watercolor...so at times she can be very frustrating to me because she doesn't understand the difficulties that go with the medium...keep going and get help when you need it!
