Sketch, sketch then watercolor, the colors are so anemic looking.
I go through things and toss then look again a few days latter and toss some more. I'm letting go of some baggage that I have been dragging around for decades and 11 moves. My large sketchbooks from college and some art work from high school. The last time I looked at this stuff was the last time I packed 10 years ago. It has only been taking up space since. So now I am letting go. I figure the next move will either be in with one of my kids or to the nursing home and I don't think either one will give me a closet big enough for all my baggage.
There were a few blank pages left in one sketchbook so I took a break and sketched it is amazing how fast a sketch can be done with big fat carpenter type pencils. I'm keeping the pencils along with all my smaller sketchbooks. 20 days until the moving truck comes and only 3 more times to fill the dumpster. --Ann--
Your sketches are lovely. Downsizing is a heartache. I wish that more people valued art more highly but I can understand the need to let go. I think that you should have them all printed up into notecards. Yes, they are good enough!!!!
ReplyDeleteI love Vic's idea! Notecards would be wonderful. Purging is difficult but necessary at different times of our lives. Great drawings!
