She is little bit different. I wanted to see what happens if she had no hair, or very very short haircut: I like her. I also like this black (called neutral black, which is actually a mixture of red, blue and black). It’s Wednesday and we are half way through the working week and getting…

As I said, this week it’s using the new watercolors. This is the second girl done entirely with them: Not my best work, but I very much like this yellow (called ‘golden’ which is not really gold just hansa yellow mixed with orange) and red (madder lake, which is not really madder, but alizarine). Anyway,…

Meet girls No. 40 and 41: I did them before I bought those new watercolors, but they had to wait for their turn to appear in public 🙂 I still have to work on improving noses and mouths, as I don’t feel quite confident with them yet. I am pretty fine with the eyes though,…

Yesterday I did two faces in She Thinks Positive Journal. The first one I do not like so much: What I like about her is her expression, sad and pensive. I tried to draw an ear, which did not really work quite well. Not surprising at all because I never draw ears. The next one…

Yesterday was a great day. I did another girl in She Thinks Positive Journal and I liked her. It was also a beautiful sunny day and I went to the town with my mother. We had a coffee in a cafe at the main square and set outside as it was gorgeous sun and rather…

Here is a quick update in She Thinks Positive Journal: I am happy how this one turned out, all facial features being more or less where they should 🙂 It’s the last day of our long weekend, and I did my morning run in the sun. It was cold but beautiful. It’s still sunny and I…

It’s time for She Thinks Positive Journal update. I have two girls done over the weekend. I am not too pleased with how they turned out but I am reminding myself that this journal is supposed to be totally imperfect. So here they are: It’s a lovely sunny Monday and I enjoy it even more…

I am continuing my work on house doodle, but in the meantime she wanted my attention: It looks like a nice sunny Saturday. I already finished my food shopping and ritual breakfast and coffee outing. I am just having a small rest and then will head out for a run. Didn’t mean to go running…

There is this lady I painted actually last week, but it patiently waited its turn to be blogged about: I used a reference photo online for shading, that’s why it is a bit unusual. I quite like the hair and background kind of merging together. I used watercolor and colored pencils on gessoed background. I…

Week 31 of Book of Days finished: I could have worked on the face for some time more, maybe it would look better, but I wanted to finish it today because I have other plans for this week. I quite like the look of her and maybe she deserves more attention… Well, I can always…
