30 Sketches II Day 30!

Day 30 - yahoo!! Don't get me wrong, I love the 30 Sketches Project but I miss painting! You might have guessed as much with me sneaking in paint into my sketches. This is a Graylag Goose in flight. I glued watercolor paper (scraps I might add) to a piece of wood measuring 9"x24". I used watercolor, graphite, charcoal, pastel, and gesso. I plan to cover it in a delicious layer of resin. I've covered a charcoal/oil drainting..? with my favorite resin, envirotex lite and it held up. Curious to see how the watercolor paper will hold up with the resin coating. My bet is that it will warp. Experiments, experiments.

Project IV Day 18: Turkey Vulture (again)

I can't stop with the Turkey Vultures. I think I might have been one in a past life. Is that why I'm such a dirtbag ?

Project VII-Day Thirty: Grass

And that is a wrap! Day Thirty's photo was taken at Oliver Nature Park in Mansfield, TX earlier this summer. The labeling of each drawing evolved during the project. In the bottom left-hand corner is the sequence number of the drawing within the 30-day time frame and the location of where the reference photo was taken. My take away from this particular project was having the opportunity to spend more time with a special moment I had in nature. It allowed me to marvel at the intricacies of the plants and animals around us.
