hello and welcome1
today i am posting my daily face and figurative
drawings in various mediums and substrate
ink and watercolor on vintage dictionary paper
acrylic painting on dictionary paper,
after a marc chagall painting
ink sketch with watercolor added from my
daily journal
i wanted to create something larger.
this started with a drawing from a photo
reference. acrylic and collage was added.
i also wanted to share these are bean bags
that i made almost 40 years ago for a friend's
daughter who was 9 at the time. we remain
the closest of friends. i was touched when
she shared that she still has freddy and frederica.
january is the time of spectacular sunsets in
my neck of the woods.
thank you for visiting. if you have the time to visit,
i am linking my post with paint party friday,
a weekly community of artists hosted by
kristen and eva for over five years.
I really love your portraits on the different substrates. They are interesting and colorful.
ReplyDeleteWow, Irene, the faces are great! Each is unique and beautiful. I love the beanbags. I still have sewing I did in first grade. We were given a doll shaped pattern and told to make a rag doll (by hand since we were only 6 years old!). I will have to post a photo of her some day.
ReplyDeleteWonderful art Irene - you are such a talent and inspiration always! That's so kind that those bean bags are still appreciated! ♥♥♥
