Evenings are pretty quiet at my house. Doodling or knitting while listening to classical music or television dramas is pretty satisfying. Sometimes there's a theme, or a subject, or just a pattern I want to incorporate.
This post includes my drawings from the first week of March: (Not quite Spring yet, but hoping!)
The above is my interpretation of a magic cat with a magic umbrella protecting herself from magic precipitation.
This was meant to be a sunflower, even if it sort of looks like a cross between a palm tree, carnival ride and surf board display. You just never know.
I'm still fascinated by house facades; especially ones that vary a lot from whatever is "the usual." If there were an HOA, what WOULD they do?!!
A person I respect told me that I might learn a lot from the myth of Demeter and Persephone. I've read quite a few versions, and I'm not sure I understand where I would fit in. Above is an image attempting to show both goddesses and their interdependence.
This might have been more successful had I actually STACKED four cups. But we only use mugs! So I made this up and added a sort of Rothko background.
Below is actually the first image of this series. The concept is a path emerging from a sere, dry, inhospitable climate. Eventually the path finds "brighter" pastures, supportive flora, and less chaos.
And then there was the day I went driving around looking for something to sketch. EVERYTHING WAS STILL COVERED WITH SNOW.
So this is snow and shadows with only a hint of trees and skies.
I wish I had had a gray marker. Not all of the shadows were black!
