Donkey's Ears

11" x14"
I had n't touched my watercolors for  many, many days.What could be better for getting back into the mode -- my favorite subject- animals!With them I don't have to worry much about accuracy of color and facial features and can play around as much as I want....this makes the exercise more fun :) Also need to populate the Etsy shop for coming season.So here goes...

P.S:  This cutie has already been sold!

Drawing - Pen and Ink Portrait

Pen and ink Drawing A3 size smooth Bristol Paper
For last few days I have been doing is quite varied stuff - working more on drawings, particularly life drawings.Joined  a new group on Saturday mornings. Pen and ink is one of the new venture,too.Using Indian ink with brush and pen to create portraits and figures.
Got myself some acrylics too (but so far have not been able to put that first brush stroke on the blank canvas!) Hope you all have been well!

Hiatus

I have been away from blogging for a little while and it is going to be like this for a few more days.Just dropped in to say 'hi' and let everyone know that I am alive! Its just that I have been restless and unhappy with the way my work was going ( nowhere!) So I decided to take a break from posting what I am doing everyday; taking that pressure off- and creating for myself for some time.
I am going to explore a new medium, Acrylics.And work some more on my drawings; adding pen and ink.
I hope that by the end of this month, I would be able to find some kind of direction.

Meanwhile I am posting some pics of my latest Group show in which I submitted only one pastel painting
"Street Musicians". Here I am posing with fellow artist and a very good friend Sherry!




See you all soon, keep painting!
