April 18, 2020 – Margaret McCarthy Hunt Art

Stops around here. Took another paintalong with Vlad Yesileyev. Maybe I will like this better tomorrow.

Vlads. Better pic on Fb tomorrow.

For some reason I seem determined to cross every t and dot every eye though I have known from freshman art that’s a no no.

My value study.

Loved his explanations that surround it.

Use the biggest brush you can.

Heads are on the horizon line.

Start drawing and painting in the middle.

We are not cameras. We don’t see everything. We focus on what we think is important.

Give an accident a chance.

Use your eraser too much you are an illustrator.

First sketch. I had to eliminate quite a few things.

First wash now that it’s been thinned out.

Coming along.

is Vlads.

Margaret who need a nap now or to go to bed.

Well just a ride to Walmart and back for a drive by pickup. People all over the place. Old people with NO masks buying “essentials” like ferns and palm trees(the houseplant kind!!)😵😵😂

Another sketch of my corner. No idea how I twisted the table like that but oh well. And the red chair is a bit off but the red in the drawing is fun. Maybe a bother go round tomorrow.

Another day of messy pens. Found my twisbee in the pen drawer. I thought hmm not used that in awhile. It leaked everywhere necessitating a ledger patch. It seemed to travel around the page. Sigh.
