Paint Party Friday, week 34, year 3, # 30

I'm not satisfied with the shapes of the eyes
but this was one month ago
today I know how to draw them differently
but that's what is so fun 
and rewarding
we learn each and every day
and that's fun and instructive!
in my blog I show my art work
just how they became
at the time
Remember not to give up
Each day is a new day
Drawing and painting is a process
and a development
and it's so fun to scroll back
and see the the development
I'm learning each day
and it's so fun
and thanks to Paint Party Friday
where I can show my own work
and watch the beautiful work among you
it gives me inspiration! :)




I've used different paints, pencils and crayons (I love that)












I tore some pieces of a napkin
and glued them into




I used gesso and brayer
this and the last pictures are more lightened up
by day light I think
typical me
I should maybe start to scan them instead??




extended the words with a graphite pencil








so it was finally




As this is not enough of pictures to show
I have some more
yesterday was the halloween day
I do not celebrate it
as I'm not used to it
Some have got used to it the latest 10-20 (?) years
but my generation never knew what it was 
when we grew up
I wanted to send a friend of mine in the US
a halloween card
so I made one myself
impulsively and quickly
yesterday
I painted on a cover of a block
with gesso all over first



the last picture, I promise! ;)
this one I painted in September
I first covered the sheet with background colors
then I went looking for shapes ;)
and this was the result of the hunt ;)



Coming soon for a visit
sorry I did not visit you last week
viola :)

hello,

it is so fun to learn new ways of drawing eyes and everything. i think these eyes are lovely.

Your halloween piece is fun too.

very cool how you found shapes of characters on your page. I think that would be a fun thing to do. Sometimes i find shapes in clouds and paint them onto paper.

lovely weekend to you~

The journey we take is the fun part - sometimes we learn "better" ways to do things - I happen to love that eyes on that little lady - your Halloween card is very fun and a bit spooky. That last painting is a tune up for the imagination. Love the shapes you found.
