Having Some Fun with Doodles

Image
"Spring" I have been working on a bigger piece - big for my standards - but did not make much progress because  I haven't got back from vacation mode yet. After the Holidays spent overseas, my lovely mom was here from Italy and I enjoyed spending time with her instead of going into my own paint world. Then I had to accompany her back, that was part of the deal for her to be able to come. Little I knew I was going to get stuck in a snowstorm... Anyway, beside reading art books and attending a couple of painting group meetings, I have been doing "light" art stuff, like doodling on my journal while listening to art podcasts or flying. Think Positive, it feels better. :) I love the feeling of freedom of doodling. There is no planning, no worries, no erasing.  I doodle with ink, and let it be. I posted several of these drawings on my facebook page , here are some. Go confidently in the direction of your dreams. Live the life you have imagined. ...

Drawing of roses, ink pen and colored pencils

Drawing of roses, ink pen and colored pencils Another drawing from my sketchbook venture . This time the inspiration are the lovely roses posted by Evhe in her blog A Nos Pinceaux . I found her painting challenge photos most inspiring, recently.  Also, tonight I went to the local Dublin Area Art League (DAAL) meeting and Spring Awakenings Show reception. While I'm quite new to the DAAL, they welcomed me in such a friendly and caring way, that made me very comfortable, and I even got the chance to entered two paintings in the spring art show. Below is a photo of me next to my Daffodils .  I have two paintings in the DAAL Spring Art Show; my first "official" show. :)
