| 2002 - I chose to put this one first as it's my favorite! |
...I used to enjoy pencil sketching. So I thought of sharing these with all of you today. Some of these are not complete, you'll notice that many of my pictures don't have a face or even a head. That was the one part of drawing that I messed up completely, oh and the hands...
I've tried to put these in order, from NEWEST to OLDEST... I wrote the dates on the back so it was easier putting them in order. I have not tried to draw anything in such a long time, I wonder if I even still can...

Happy quilting.
I just have to say: WOW! I can't draw anything but a house and a tree.
ReplyDeleteI get into a lot of art styles, mediums, color and general expression. I genuinely love them all and see beauty everywhere I look. My favorite though - always - pencil and charcoal drawings. There's something amazing about telling a story with such simple tools. It's like a window right into the heart of the artist's mind. If you enjoy doing it, you should keep at it. Even if just for expression and exploration! :)
ReplyDeleteI love this post! Your drawings are really good - better than you give yourself credit for... I used to draw A LOT when I was young, too, but only wildlife. I could never draw people. Since I started quilting, it has renewed my desire to draw and it all comes back to you. Quite relaxing. Have fun with it!
ReplyDeleteWow you are an artist in my eye, they're great, thanks for sharing another side of yourself with us!
ReplyDeleteLovely sketches!
ReplyDeleteO jou tekeninge is pragtig- ek sien 'n Art Quilter in wording!
ReplyDeleteWOW sooo talented! good for you for getting back to it!
ReplyDeleteVery nice drawings. I am sure you can draw hands; your foot is very nice! I have used my own hand as a model before--usually my left hand is the model since I am right-handed!
ReplyDeleteI also recently pulled out some sketches with the idea that I might turn them into a quilt project (probably a wall hanging or a panel for a tote bag, something like that. I have always loved to draw but haven't done much of it in years.
