This post has been trying my patience. I’ve been trying to get it up for almost a week now. The images have been giving me technical difficulties. I can’t get them to copy from here to there, or my usb key won’t read, or the scanner refuses to scan my spiral-bound sketchbook properly, or I fell asleep. Anywhodles, I finally just took a picture of them on my phone and sent them to myself. Then I popped into Photoshop to remove shadows and stuff so they don’t look like I took a photo of them with my phone – even though I’m telling you that. 😉 It’ll be our little secret. Don’t tell anyone. It’s just between us.
I did this one a bazillion years ago (or a month). I was sitting on the couch and my swiss army knife was sitting beside me, so I drew it. TA-DA!I started drawing random patterns, and then it started looking like the texture in an iris, so I went with it… It took a while, but it kinda looks cool!I got some new neon pencils and was fiddling around with them. I drew this elephant-bottle! I love all things neon!
Well hello there! I’ve been instagramming again. I snap photos here and there and after a while I have a little collection of photos. It seems that using this app brings out a different beast in my creative side. Most of the instagram pics I snap seem to have a certain feel about them. Here are some more “gems!”  Warning: the last photo is a little racy… I left it to the end so that you’d have the choice to scroll that far or not 😉
Photo of a tulip with morning dew on it. Pretty little guy.I like that this picture ends up being about the texture of the road, and not the shadow…I really liked the shape of the glass and the texture of the bubbles and the table…Weeds can be pretty sometimes…
WARNING: Scary Photo below!
Levi found this squashed mouse by the side of the road… Mouse pancake! Poor little thing.
Can you believe I’ve been at this for almost 4 months now? Granted, there have been a few slips and slides, but I’m trying to roll with the punches. This little blog has come a long way – from being a creative motivator for me, to becoming a showcase for some pretty fantastic artwork! Let’s keep the ball rolling… Here are this week’s photos from yours truly! They are actually photos collected over the last two weeks, since I had a featured photographer in last Friday’s post 🙂
Don’t forget to click on the image if you want to see more detail, and have a spectacular Friday!
One foggy morning I went out to start my car. As I walked back to the house to make my tea, this was the sight I beheld!On the way to a halloween party, I took some shots out the window as we were driving. This is the one of the fruits of my labour.The first frost is always good and bad for me. It means it's going to get much colder, but just look how beautiful everything looks!I had to capture these shadows in the parking lot. You only get to see shadows like this when the leaves have all fallen 🙂This little guy was the last of his kind. I found a bunch on the ground, but they were all rotten. What beautiful colours!Last night, lying in bed, I looked up at my spider plant, and I saw a monster in my bedroom! If you can make it out, you can see the crazy shadows that my spider plant makes on the ceiling when my printer light is on.
What have you done NOW?
