So, at the risk of being called a one-trick pony; I'm afraid that my November is not exactly demonstrating much diversity (yet!)... It appears I must stand on the stage once again with a girl who fell asleep in tears a sheet of tabloid newsprint and awoke with the story of Frankie Cocozza's abrubt talent show departure upon her face.
Hmm.... now maybe that would have been a more original idea. I could have drawn a whole bevy of girls over Frankie's headlines.
I did try a new arrangement this week with my sketch today though - gone for a close up. Maybe I'm just finding my groove. Plus tomorrow I'll be approaching my art from a whole new direction as I take up my Surface Pattern Design course.
Something to share for Sunday Sketches anyway and proof of my commitment to Art Every Day.
PS - Apologies to those of you who haven't a clue who Frankie Cocozza is, or indeed the X-Factor. It's a Brit-thing. Helps us take our minds of economic doom and gloom and other 'real' news.

Lisa, I don't watch X Factor, but I do watch what you are up to.
ReplyDeleteYour face here is so pretty...there will never be a time when looking at beautiful faces won't be a joyful occupation.

I think we had an Australian X Factor but I never watched it. However, I do love your Sunday Sketch!!
ReplyDeleteThe diversity of your work shows in the variety of faces you so beautifully create - each one is so different...so engaging. It's been a pleasure to see your work through AEDM!
ReplyDeleteI love the sketch lines under her face.....the translucent color and easy expression....
ReplyDeleteOne trick pony? I say nay, not neigh! Your girls on print are gorgeous!
Luminous... As usual! I'm in awe of how well you capture the hair-- color, texture... That's very tough to do and you make it look effortless!
ReplyDeleteMy sister is CRAZED over the X Factor.. I wish I had started watching it from the beginning. Your girl is lovely. Can't wait to see what this class brings into your work. Happy Sunday.

Good old Simon brought the X Factor to the US now. I still don't have a clue who you are talking about, but hey... That's what makes blog hopping so damn fun!
ReplyDeleteI love the close-up and congrats for sticking with AEDM. Weekends are the hardest for me.
Warmly,
Tracy
Love the close up with the words coming through......it is as if she is pondering the thoughts. Wonderful piece! I fall in the category of not knowing :)
ReplyDeleteYour Sunday sketch is fantastic and I love that one of the girls have reappeared... as to the X-factor... got to love a bit of trash telly that invokes yelling at the hosts... nothing like it I say!!! Very therapeutic !!!
ReplyDeleteI just love this style, she's lovely,,the script behind makes a lovely background.
ReplyDeleteShe is beautiful and daydreamy..in a far away place..love the traveling feeling in her eyes..like she is moving also..powerful! Love this one!
ReplyDeleteVictoria

ReplyDelete:))
ReplyDeletewhile i don't know the story, i desperately want to wake up with a story printed on my face.
xxa
p.s. i like wine.
ReplyDeleteI love whatever you show us from the stage!! (love that ;) and think that she's gorgeous - I really love the text coming through and those soft, neutral colors. She is really very pretty. I say, Bravo!!
ReplyDeleteOh, and no I don't know who that is, but I watch our version here - heard of the Real Housewives series? We're addicted to them on this side of the pond, xoxo
First visit to your blog thanks to AEDM. I love your art and will definitely be back!
ReplyDeleteI like the entire concept behind this one. It would make a fabulous journal page..the economic news isn't all that good anywhere in the world that I know of. Tears on the newspaper says it all.
ReplyDeletehaha! I purely a 'strictly' girl myself!
ReplyDeleteReally enjoying seeing your painting every day. I love todays - her shading is fab!
