Day 1750 It’s Saturday

Macy was our model today. This ones NOT DONE. Needs the drapes I think. I did add some black charcoal pencil along her bottom edge to delineate it BUT needs a bit more.

First break

Second break. I think her right arm is a bit thin but Macy is VERY slim.

Second break wash of flesh cad Fred light and French yellow ochre – over all. Then adding more cad red light cerulean and burnt sienna for darks.

Hair burnt umber raw umber and ultramarine. Added dabs of peacock blue here and there for another dark and some cobalt.

Drew Murphy 2’x3′ acrylic on board the darks under her breast are actually a dark chocolate brown NOT black.

Day 1749 Squirrels

You knew they would be back sooner or later. And there’s a dove and a cardinal. Drawn with my inktense and watercolor pencils colored in with the same and released with water. Adding the water to them always reminds me of being a child with those pictures made of dots that turned colors when you hit them with a wet paint brush.

MAGIC!!

Margaret still running around like a chicken but I have lost five pounds of me this week. Hmm maybe I need to draw my diet again. Xoxoxox
