New paintings and regular art updates.
Today’s #bandofsketchers prompt was Pandoras box. I drew this last night, all the bad things in the world but at least there is hope. Felt pens used with a fine liner to outline the shapes. I tried to make it a bit like 1960’s Pop Art, with an attempt to draw half tone dots.
Memory of a sundae/ knickerbocker glory from my childhood. We went up the Great Orme mountain at Llandudno in Wales and I think we were treated to these? Or maybe it was a Wimpy cafe? Great memories. Today’s #bandofsketchers prompt was decadent. I think this is x
Today’s #bandofsketchers prompt was Peace. I decided to draw yellow roses against a blue background. Used felt pens, Hoping for peace in Ukraine. I know its a vain hope but I can wish.
Using the sketch app on my phone and a stylus I found, although the phone haptic seemed happier with my finger. Mostly drawn upside down but I had to turn it round when I realised the nose was too long and the mouth needed repositioning. I drew it as if the light was coming from the top. Today’s #bandofsketchers was looking down and this digital drawing is looking down (I almost drew my foot)…
I don’t have my trusty sketch book today because I’m having a couple of photos taken of it so I decided to digitally finger paint Jupiter for todays prompt for #bandofsketchers. I used an app on my phone. It’s just called ‘Sketch’. Hope to get my book back by Thursday.
Today’s #bandofsketchers prompt was Horizon. This was the horizon as I walked over the canal bridge at Etruria, Stoke on Trent, near the Industrial Museum.. Its mostly obscuring the houses behind. Felt pen drawing and fine ink liner pen. It was a lovely sunny day. Not drawn in situ but from a photo.
Today’s #bandofsketchers prompt was Spring. I decided it was too cold to stand outside and draw daffodils so I decided to draw one from memory. Also couldn’t get my sketchbook page flat so it’s a bit curved… I have some with very strong orange trumpets and bright yellow petals so I think these colours are close.
Tuesdays #bandofsketchers prompt was the future based on the Potter Graysons Perry’s Art club on TV.
Oh my! What to draw. Bogged down writing my college report I decided to draw future ‘P. E. T’ a personal environmental trainer (and jukebox). Lol. It also purrs and mioaws! Just a silly doodle.
Felt pen drawing of my Mother taken from a painting I did of her several years ago. She passed away after I did the portrait. This was for todays prompt, Mother, as it is Mothering Sunday in the UK. The felt pen colours were a bit dark so I’ve adjusted it a bit. #bandofsketchers
Today’s #bandofsketchers prompt was pack. I’m not sure I got this right. It started with some squiggled lines then I worked on it in the sketch app on my phone. I should have added a card like the ace of hearts but I cannot get neat straight lines so I’ve abandoned it at this stage. X
