drawing night 3/3/2012
Drawing night was at Jen C\'s this week and I was dubious about the amount we could achieve whilst also consuming a three course dinner, four if you include tea afterwards. However the power of drawing is strong and we all knuckled down between mains and dessert.
My first two were centred around the theme of a FB group I\'m in called One Themed Drawing a Month. The topic for the month is dreams. Like last month I\'ve taken to the idea of a preset theme, it makes inspiration so much easier when there\'s some gentle direction. Normally on one\'s own we are faced with an infinite array of subjects which I find daunting.
So I did two drawings, one of tiny Lego pieces which I dreamt I was picking up last night.
The other was of a horse; from an early age I was a clichéd girl, I dreamt of owning a horse. I haven\'t drawn many horses in the last twenty odd years so I thought I\'d give it a go.
I finished up with an outfit for a masquerade ball and I tended of finishing tonight but I\'ve misplaced my Cardinal R59!

Drawing Night
I love drawing night, it doesn't happen enough!
It happened last night spontaneously and was a bit of high and low.
I spilt my drink on two of my favourite drawings whilst talking enthusiastically, one of which I had sketched on pencil but was too nervous to ink in.
But! Today, thanks partly to a Christmas gift from a friend, I bought an Artograph Lightpad so I traced the precious one and felt completely justified in my spontaneous purchase :)
