Sketch Fest is today!
Sep. 17th, 2010 08:39 pmThen I started to try to get set up to do some painting, and got dragooned into doing yardwork. True, it needed to be done, and also true, it's supposed to rain for the next two days. So I went with it.
Finally, now I'm sitting down to start. Starting is generally a blank page, so:
And then, since I'm painting with acrylics, I either sketch in a pale paint color, or lay down a background. Sometimes the background is quite elaborate, but today I'm supposed to be finished (or at least ready to move on) in an hour, so I'm going for a plain background. It's a start.
So, a whole bunch of other artists are also participating in the sketch fest. You're welcome to stop by and participate, either by leaving prompts or sketching. Or both, of course.
And now you can see the same notebook page, with the first layer of color on it.
More later!
