Drawing

It is spelled drawing however, in my mind, it sounds like draw-ring.
With a bit of a British accent of course.

Sunday afternoon, I painted my very 1st watercolor.
You can see it on my Project 365 Page for Sept 18'11.

Sunday evening, I felt like sketching with my pencil.
Here is the deal with me and draw-ring.
I cannot just create from within, I can copy anything.
I really need to take an art class because I have
difficulty with scope.
Also, I can draw a really nice eye, but not on a face,
unless it's Stewie Griffin!

So this was what I wanted to sketch.

This is where I should have stopped draw-ring.
This is where I am happy with it.
After this, I chose a very light green for the skirt and
it just didn't work.

Plus, I really need to learn how to draw cute pixie faces.
This one, with brown hair and closed eyes looked like a middle-aged librarian
sitting on a toadstool!


What's more important to me is that I am enjoying
trying something I've never done before.

Poor Adam, his office walls will be covered with my creations.
Let's hope it doesn't end up looking like a wall in a kindergarten class!
