Landscape lines

Photography helps me in my art work. 
I see lines, compositions, colour combinations,
shapes and also emotions.
On a cold frosty and sunny morning I took time for a walk,
and ended up on a small road not far from my house.
It was quiet, no people, just this landscape and me.
The lines of the landscape caught my eye, the sense of freedom, 
of lines leading to somewhere not to be seen, and also dividing my picture.
The crisp blue with the ochre,
a boost of energy and inspiration!

In my studio: Painting in red

Using only the colour red to make a portrait, why not?



Part of my painting
I think I chose the colour red because of its energetic character, just to see what would happen.
Using the colour straight on, or diluted with water for a softer effect.
What do you think?

Paper scraps

Still drawing... :)


Today I am working on planning activities, trying to focus myself on the important things.
Lots of ideas go through my head,
focus is the problem...

ADAD # 28 and 29: glasses


Wonky glasses.... and something to remember for myself:


February is coming to an end and making a drawing each day was not very easy, but I've learned again some things. I hope you enjoyed me sharing this project. Some days were better than others... :).

ADAD #27: cheated a bit with drawing

So I got this pad of tracing paper from a friend, she uses it for interior decoration.
I used it to trace a little girl from a picture, focusing only on the outlines.
Just to see how this would look...


but it feels like cheating.
