My Special Collection

I will number this day 3 and 4 of #inktober, time is limited so I finished this one up tonight along with starting another. Day 3's prompt was "collection," and if there is one thing that I have the biggest collection of it is art supplies.


In my journey to find my artistic self I have accumulated a wide verity of art supplies, why you ask, because I want to try everything, I want to see what speaks to me, the collection consist of:

Acrylic paints and mediums, watercolors (of course), markers, pens, pencils, colored pencils, paint markers, and inks. Lets not forget about canvas and papers also.

I have played with just about every medium I can afford and even a few I wish I had not purchased. I will use just about everything I bought unless I absolutely hate it. There are a few that get pushed to the back while I am learning a new medium but I will eventually go back to it. I guess I am still trying to find my niche along with always wanting to try something new. That is one of the reasons I wanted to participate in #inktober, I this will create a better habit of practicing. I have learned one thing over the last couple of years, I have to get more sleep if I ever plan on going anywhere with my art, I am thinking that is where my creativity block starts. 

Happy Inking and Creating

I am still trying to get the hang of the tools, love how many different apps there are for  drawing on a tablet. Each one has its own thing to offer. I will be working on these on  my down time from painting, more to come soon though.

Jasper's Cat Naps

Usually the reason for me having problems creating is becuase I have artist block or just too busy, well now I have a new problem. Mr. Jasper has found a new napping place. This creates a big problem on so many levels: He is in my way As you can see, he is very hairy and has a lot of hair balls which he has no issues getting rid of wherever he would like. Again, very hairy and he sheds, on everything including the painting I was working on. (good thing I was not happy with the painting). He will push off anything in his way Along with my art desk he has found a few other places, our computer desk, in front of the satellite receiver, the bathtub and the bin where I keep my art towels.  Along with is odd sleeping area he now has fleas. I will not say where he got these from but I do know the source. Now its off to the pet store to find a product to put on him because giving this cat a bath is a death sentence for anyone that attempts it. We have never had a flea proble...

Play Ball

As moving day is getting closer it is time to pack up most of the art supplies so I decided to give drawing on the tablet a try again. I am very happy with they way this came out. I started by scribbling all over the screen then staring at it until I found some shapes.I had no intention of drawing something baseball related but that's what happened. It was nice to go into this with absolutely no idea of what I was going to draw. So, LET'S PLAY BALL!
