On Instagram I saw an oil painting "Midsummer" by Romona Youngquist, an artist whose work is absolutely beautiful. My artwork is no match for Romona's by any stretch of the imagination, but I simply wanted to give it a try. When I saw her piece, I thought that's where I want to spend my summer even if it's only in my COVID-19 journal!
in 2014, my husband and I took a trip to Budapest, Prague, and Vienna. This mixed media piece was inspired by one of the many photographs I took while there.
Sometimes I forget and get too close. I need to remember SOCIAL DISTANCING!
I found these fantastic Blackwing pencils at Dick Blick. The color is nice and rich making sketching fun.
Finished this spread in my COVID journal. Inspired by a poem written by Harold Adamson.
"Time on My Hands"
Mixed media - Micron pen, watercolor, ink, image transfer
Time on my hands...what to draw...what to paint...decisions, decisions. A spark of an idea...let's see what happens...
