Anemone Flower Challenge

 Such a wonderful summer day today, I was in the studio this morning doing a painting for an Artists Challenge. online, and thought you guys might like to see what I was up to.  We were suppose to use a medium we've never used before, no more than an hour, with some ink included if we wanted, and no pre drawing.  I used Watercolors  with some Ink outlines. Took about an hour . Just a small study, 5x7inch,  painted first, then outlined. I found watercolors a good challenge, after Acrylics and Oils.  Will have to do some more quick studies to get a better feel for them.. Keeta my cat lounged on my table in the sun while I experimented..At least he kept his paws to himself today, he often likes to give me a hand.  LOL

Sketchbook Drawing #4-Young Woman

Another hot off the press. Quick study, I seem to be on a roll here, just want to do faces it seems.
All these are just impulsive. No pre thought to draw them. I just get an impulse when I see a image, or something, and grab a pen or pencil and some paper. I tend to like to use a pen, as then it hinders me from being able to erase. Still playing that game with myself. I've done quite a few more since the last posting, but I'm going to post this one from last night as I quite like her look and she was done very quickly and no real hitches. Still very rough drawings, I'm a messy artist. But this one is a lot cleaner than most of them LOL.
This is done with pen on 8.5 X 11 paper........

Have some paintings on the way.......you must be getting bored with these sketches by now!!!
Stay tuned......
