finally getting some art done.......using fine-line archival pigment pens - black - and drawing on pieces of archival paper. this is to make it all feel official, and in case i like something it will last a while! i have been coming up with stuff i used to draw as a kid. some of my favorite things to draw are very detailed, small decorative designs. they look like lace sometimes, but i am trying to get subject matter to at least make some ATC's. i used to color these extremely detailed coloring pictures that would take weeks to finish and lots of fine markers-- fairies, mushrooms, nature. so far i have also drawn a dragon, skulls, and lots of textural inchies for practice.
i am actually pretty proud of myself.....i have been drawing every day!!!!!!!! i need complete uninterrupted time to work. i have the tv on for company, but like to just dive-in and get absorbed. it's very therapeutic, esp when i come up with stuff i like. some of the things remind me of the drawings i did when i was really manic, but that's ok, right now it's relaxing......
i will try to photo these and post them.......
not using my scrap space, BTW, just my corner of the couch where i have a tiny workspace set up, it's my fave spot in the house, maybe i'll take a pic of that too.
