Those of you who do it know this....doodling is a drug that doesn't hurt you, anyone around you, is very cheap and can be done just about anywhere at any time. It is a drug that takes you to another place where time is lost and your connection with the physical world fades back into the distance. I encourage you to get your dose of drug therapy today!
I'm taking a drawing class based on Betty Edwards' book 'Drawing on the Right Side of the Brain'. Time and again I have taken those online tests that - supposedly - determine which brain side you operate from. For me it's always the right hemisphere, hands down. Anyhooooo....this is the second drawing I have ever done and....flaws aside (what is going on with that thumb???).....I can't believe I did it! It looks like what it's suppose to look like. I'm going to try drawing that tree stump in the front yard next.
As a rule I don't sketch out ideas for new art quilts. I usually just go for it and run into all kinds of design complications as I go along mixed up with some choice words. But last night I was messing around with pencil and paper and came up with this idea. I think it will be the basis for a new quilt. I see her in all kinds of vibrant colors - funky folky arty....I think she will wear the style well.....I can't wait to start work on her.
