Its been a little while between posts. I hope you are all well and coping being away from your normal lives. I have been drawing here and there but need to get a bit more practice in. I did have a lovely project that took me a while and it totally absorbed me. The reference photo was given to me by an art friend who also happens to be a fabulous macro photographer.
The subject.....a gorgeous rose and busy blue banded bee. I loved it immediately!
So here is a few progress photos.
This is Trevors gorgeous photo.....
What a joy this was to work on.....very happy little scribbler.
My ART Group Challenges have been a bit and miss....last week was "Beauty in the Rain "
You may remember the little Willy Wagtail I did for a friend.....
Well he now has a lovely frame and is loved by his new owner.
Because of the current situation, mail is very slow to arrive. I have been hanging out for a new book I purchased with Christmas art funds......and FINALLY...it came!
I am a huge fan of Botanical Art....have been since childhood when I used to gaze at some framed prints my Grandmother had on her wall. They always attract me straight away!
Definitely worth the wait. A beautiful book.....hopefully it can improve my efforts.
So lovely people that is me all caught up. I have no words of wisdom on what form your creativity should take during this time......the feeling of 'HAVING TO" can be a real dampener on your creative spirit. Nothing kills creativity quicker than PUSHING! Just go where your interest takes you. It is often surprising where you end up.
Stay well and safe friends.
Namaste and blessings Michelle xxx
