This has been a busy week for us. Birdie has had 4-hour rehearsals every evening at Ohio State. I decided that since it is 40+ minutes to drive her there, I would stay and find a way to amuse myself on campus. The first day, I brought a few books and thought the 4 hours would never end. The next 3 days, I took ran errands and went to a movie. I thought it might be fun to see "adult" movies. I learned that I don't like R-rated movies.
Finally, last night, I brought my art supplies. The time just FLEW by!
Birdie made a rubber stamp of her uncles. I colored two of them and did pen and ink shading on the third.
I'm not particularly happy with the results, but at least I was happy while I was doing it.
Art always saves the day doesn't it? Glad you decided to paint! I'm fine with the outcomes!!! HPPF!
ReplyDeleteTime does fly when we make art!

I always carry a few art supplies with me, and am always surprised now that waiting just flies by now. And I always feel that I have accomplished something. :)
ReplyDeletePopped in from paint party Friday. It is the process of making art that is just what we need when we do it. So no matter the outcome, create! I really like the effect of the pen, almost looks like a linoleum print. Popped in from paint party Friday
ReplyDeleteHappy while you were doing it - that's what to strive for. Well done. Happy PPF
ReplyDeleteGreat idea! It looks like you had a lot of fun doing this. Your faces show a lot of personality.
ReplyDeleteany day you get to create is a good day isn't it... have a great creative week...xx
ReplyDeleteGood idea, time really flies when creating... Fun pieces, very original!
ReplyDeleteYou did a great job with these! They kind of remind me of 1950s-1960s era comic book art. That's a compliment since the artists always put in all the essentials--you could always tell things like people's age and emotions even with the minimal line work. And the coloring you did here really gives it the right finishing touches.
ReplyDeleteAlso: I'm having trouble voting for you in the zentangle category. Could you send me a direct ink to the voting option?
ReplyDeleteArt supplies are the only thing that saves my sanity during basketball season. It never feels like a wasted day if you have some art to show for the time.
ReplyDeleteI always seem to be happiest if I have some art to work on--
ReplyDeleteThe best way to pass the time :). The stamp looks awesome, and the colouring brings it to life.
